Where is the cam shaft sensor located on a 1999 Suzuki Esteem 1.8 Suzuki

why ask a clerk? that??
J18 engine has 2 key sensors,
CKP behind the flywheel (aaahhhcraaappppp)
and
CMP on rear of cam,
so what is 340,well the service manual is clear
why not ask it , NOT/clerks.
340 is CAM, or CMP sensor.
lucky you.
no pull transmissions!!

btw ,crank sensor sets DTC p0335

if not wanting to guess, and get rumors and lies.

Jamie, Is or was engine light on, are there any codes, was there any recent work done? The more info. the easier to help diagnose.
Removing the oil fill cap and have a helper crank the engine, while you look for cam movement,if you have cam movement that's good.
Next squirt some starter fluid in throttle body and try starting, try a couple times. If starts and revs fine while running on starter fluid, problem is a faulty fuel pump filter,fuse, relay or pump.
If it spits sputters or backfire while trying to start, timing belt has slipped probably and needs replaced.

not true, Huseyin.! at all.
OP: (original poster)
J18 engine. FWD. application. USA setup
with COP coils x4 (DIS ignition?)
our Esteems started in 1999....
other countries have them too, but use totally different spark (distributor) and Im not answering for THAT, only USA EPA spec. engines.
some othere countries, has a Mazda. 1.8L BP.
answering for J18 only.
the J18 is an understoked, J20. (early engine)
good to know for parts swaps !

OP backup and read your first post.on same topic.
the answer is there, too.
facing engine, crank pulley on left
see that head, see the front cam,
this cam has the CMP drive (left side,) or right facing engine) the cam drives it directly.
so... is just there.

why? not scan the PCM and see if you have P0340 errors = CMP misfiring..... (even 1 in 10)
and the prev. post has the real diagram....
cmp mount is here.

see it?


the part is also shown at the online suzuki parts pages.


Scan it, get this ???????


as you cans see, the FSM is full of CMP facts,
factory service manual. NO photos?, BAH!
(for Esteem)

you want to buy an ESteem, why?
Suzuki is dead. (USA and Canada )
i why buy a near Yugo status car?
this rare car , most the parts on car are not sold by the aftermarked (underdog)
and suzuki shut down here, no new car sales.
and there parts supply is collapsing at a fast rate, due to no car dealers and just 2 online sales points. (weak, and no parts drawings...there, poor support !!!)
they also list most parts now as discontinued.
so why own this car.?

why not (if underdog cars are cool?)
buy a GEO Prizm , at least all the parts are Toyota Corolla and sold 100% all parts.

Esteems are no good. due to above facts.
unless its just a toy and down time is of no matter... "truth"

old post. what sensor, name it?
better is to post symptoms, and not guess.

I need a location of my oil dipstick on a 1999 Suzuki esteem

I'm guessing you have a 1.8 liter engine. Below is a picture of its location. As far as replacing it, the transmission as well as rge flywheel or driveplate needs to be removed in order to get at it to replace it. Not just a simple replacement of a sensor. Hope this helps.....

On the Esteem 1.6L: the Crankshaft Position Sensor is located on the right side (passenger side) of the engine Oil Pan.

For the Esteem 2.0L: the CKP is located behind the engine Flywheel in the back of the engine block. It is necessary to remove the transmission to service the sensor.

Having good fuel pressure is a plus (yours seems a bit high but I don't have specs) What you need to find out is if the injectors are opening and putting the fuel into the engine so it can work. Are the plugs wet with fuel or dry? Does it fire up if you spray carb cleaner into the throttle body while cranking?

haynes should have a manual on this car, which will show the location of the cam pos sensor. check autozone or napa
