• Q: How to Remove and Install a Camshaft Position Sensor on 2001 Dodge Neon?

  A: At the rear of the cylinder head is where you will find the camshaft position sensor. To start, undo the connections at both ends of the cylinder head cover, take out the brake booster hose and electrical connector and quickly put them back into place. After that, remove the wiring from the connector and remove the mounting screws to take off the sensor. Relax the screw holding the target magnet to the back of the camshaft. To install it, set the target magnet at the camshaft's end, so the two dowels are in the machined holes and tighten the screw with 3.4 Nm (30 in. lbs.) of torque. After that, connect the camshaft position sensor; tighten its mounting screws to 9 Nm (80 in. lbs.) of torque. Next, feed the brake booster hose and electrical harness into their holders on the valve cover and join the electric connectors to the camshaft position sensor.
