Looking for a image where this is on my car...mine went today and would like to install the new one this weekend. Plus any info on installing.


Thanks,

 

What specific trouble code number are you getting?

 

Forgot to keep that from autozone but my car will not rev over 3,000 rpm and the code we pulled today said to replace the cam sensor

 

You may want to go back to get the actual trouble code number and post it.

Can't be sure what it is referring to, as there is no cam sensor per se for a 99 Accord V6. Not sure if they may be referring to crankshaft position sensor or something else. In addition, a trouble code does not always means an issue with a sensor, it can be due to wiring, connection, car's computer, etc.

 

Thanks will do in the morning..

 

I'll watch for your post.

 

Really crazy just was driving along and check engine light cam on and would not go over 3,000 rpm

 

 

That is the part autozone gave me...

 

That looks like the crankshaft position sensor (CKP sensor).

1. Inspect the connector, connector terminals, and wiring first.

2. If the connector and wiring look okay, unplug the connector, then measure the resistance between the sensor's two terminals.

Resistance should be 1,850 - 2,450 ohms.

3. Check for continuity between body ground and the CKP sensor's terminals No. 1 (Blue wire) and No. 2 (white wire), individually. -- There should be no continuity to body ground.

4. There still can be a resistance test done of the harness connector for the PCM (car's computer) and continuity test at the PCM; but, I won't get into that at this point.


************************************
CKP sensor replacement requires removal of alternator belt, power steering belt, dipstick, crankshaft pulley, and covers.

However, it may not be due to a faulty CKP sensor.
