The Camshaft Position Sensor is found in Cadillac DeVille cars and is firmly responsible for determining the camshaft position as well as its speed, and providing this information to the engine control module to control the fuel injectors and ignition timing. Commonly, the sensor is installed on the surface of the camshaft, although, it can be located at other places depending on the make of the vehicle. Altogether with the Crank Senor, the Camshaft Position Sensor assists to co-coordinate the different parts of the engine to provide appropriate fuel injection timing and to measure the Engine Speed accurately. A bad Camshaft Position Sensor can also take a toll on the engine performance which is why it must be checked regularly.
