disconnect the negative battery cable, as your looking at the motor from the front, the driver's side will be on the right. remove the top cover of the engine,6 10 mm bolts. you will see 2 almost identical plugs one on top of the other, one will have a notation or same part code as your new one ,ck sensor is crank sensor and cam sensor is a diff number. if you follow the wire from the cam sensor it will lead to just under the upper black plastic timing cover which has 2 0r 3 ten mm bolts,once you remove those you can wiggle that cover off and see the cam sensor behind the timing belt. you should be able to remove the two ten mm bolts holding it in and replace the sensor, good luck.I am not as fortunate ,I had to replace the crank sensor which was more extensive as it is behind the lower timing cover and one bolt is behind the hydraulic belt tensionerpulley and had to be released and move out of the way successfully without removing the radiator or timing belt.

The camshaft position sensor is located near the thermostat housing. You should replace the crankshaft position sensor as well. This one is much harder to locate....it is on the backside of the engine that is between the firewall and the engine block. Both use the same sensor.
