The cam sensor is mounted on the left side of the engine. It is near the oil filter, you may have to look under the engine to see it.
Yes
The 94 and 95 are the same,no cam sensor.1996 and 1997 are differant in one way.The 1996 and 1997 have a cam sensor. .The 97 has a cam sensor and the 94 does not.The 1996 has a cam sensor too.
Cam sensor, thats about it, there aren't any other names for that sensor.
No you can not. It MUST have it to run.
On the oil pan
Right in the front, on top the engine,in the intake cam tower.
To continue where I left off, since they only give you 200 words lol...... Ok the Cavalier 94 block is slightly different to the Cavalier 97 block, the 97 has Cam, Knock, and a Crank sensor but the 94 does not. So when I installed the 94 engine into the 97 Cavalier I was not able to plug the 3 sensors in so I just left them to hang around. The car just rolls over and doesn't even try to start. Will the car run without the the 3 sensors hooked up, and how do I bypass this?
the cam sensor reads speed and works with the crank position sensor to tell your coil packs when to fire your spark plugs and what cylinder to fire on
I was driving on the highway and the car just stalled and wouldn't restart. Originally it showed a code for cam position sensor. I changed the cam pos sensor. It still wont start. When I try to start it it cranks much faster than normal. Now it shows a code for a MAP sensor. I changed that...nothing. Any ideas.
it is a enhanced traction service light simple sensor
Next to the oil filter, bolted to the block.
It is part of the distributor. You have to replace the distributor
