To determine if a camshaft position sensor is bad, you can look for symptoms such as rough idling, difficulty starting the engine, or unexpected stalling. Additionally, you can check for diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) using an OBD-II scanner, which may indicate cam sensor issues if specific codes are present. Physically inspecting the sensor for damage, wear, or poor connections can also help identify problems. If necessary, testing the sensor's voltage and resistance with a multimeter can confirm its functionality.

Would bad cam sensor cause no spark?

If you have a bad cam sensor there will be no input sent to the computer signaling the position of the cam/crank...etc, and there will be no signal sent to the coils telling them to fire. So yes, a bad cam sensor will in part cause no spark. Try a new sensor, or pick one up for cheap from a junkyard.
