    Please ask this as a new question. I've spent 1+1/2 days trying to get Fixya to get rid of dingledick. He is just doing this for attention and knows nothing about your problem.

    no engine name state, did you know all engines have real names>
    like 6vd1, 6vd1w and 6ve1. ? wow, a revelation.
    no, not the back of the head.
    sorry, its not a 6ve1,
    the 6vd1 are on the INSIDE rear of head.
    see that word INSIDE, that matters
    see my photos of them all , all v6s...
    all years.
    but not the early years with DISTRIBUTORS.
    the Distribs have the CMP then.,
    then DIS was born.
    distributorless, Ignition system and to present.

    SUPPOSED IS WRONG, there is not just one engine used !!!!
    No vin number stated with engine codes there.
    failure 1: here...

    the VVT engine has 2 rear of head sensors
    the non VVT has one on the INSIDE LEFT HEAD
    the key word here is LEFT and INSIDE.

    not rear. not outside. but INSIDE>
    if it is VVT engine its rear outside both HEADS
    see them all here.
    http://jeepdied.com/look/24hr/CMP-wonder...

    the very early V6 had no CMP at all.
    till 1996: (EPA law)
    the CKP in the early engines run the whole show. it's crude but works,
    then the EPA barks. mandates. (all cars usa)


    the CMP sensors 96+ are in 2 places. on the v6
    1x sensor, left rear inside of head,cmp
    2x sensors on both heads rear (cmp)

    wild GUE$$ing is not cheap, is it...

    sorry , the CMP is not the common cause
    if misfiring
    there are like 10,000 post here for that.
    misfires, not cmp.

    the #1 reasons is.
    not doing tuneups on time. and

    1: not scanning it and seeing what cylinder misfires, yah think?
    2: old cars, low compression. on cylinder that misfires. (called basics)
    3: bad spark on cylinder that misfires,
    Bad spark coil, or cop, "coil over plugs".
    4: bad fueling on cylinder that misfires.
    that be a clogged or leaking injector?

    but you didnt scan it.
    nor post if it's P0300 error, all cylinders misfire, in random order. is 300.
    that be a horse of a different color,
    for sure.

Hello Joaquin Cordova,

Apologies for the trash answer you received.

Bing search yielded a "back if the engine" note...

Please go to the URL highlighted at the bottom of this entry..
The location seems to be covered by a couple of hoses at the rear.

Check for prices at rockauto & Amazon...
You might be pleased.

Hmmmm...
3.2 V6 Engine: rockauto shows a different part than the one I found... It is ALSO PICTURED IN THE BING IMAGES

Hope this helps.

    Not really! I have veritable fortunes invested in REAL FACTORY manuals (and not a smudge in any of them) ... That's why I "usually" recommend "RTFM".

    I keep my tools pretty too
    (amateur mechanic, wood butcher & vintner).

    ((Professional radio & fiber optic)).
    (((we've met before))).

    I put COPIES in the grease.. but I'm a really old guy... my "F" isn't ever silent ... (if I were smart I'd bandage my knuckles BEFORE I start (but alas)).

    By the way... I do admire/enjoy your answers!
    Nice... VERY NICE work.

  • Anonymous Dec 21, 2016

    my guess, is hubby asked wife to fix car
    or asked here to google why car misfires.
    then they read 1million rumors on CMP
    then are H3ll bent on finding it.

    who is
    Testimonial:
    "i still need some help to fix this problem"
    who are you????

    no problem stated, if you can read
    the OP is doing an easter egg hunt.
    "sensor is not where it suppose to be "

    what problem,?
    photos above show all v6 engines now.
    with NO distributor.
    if you have a distributor its in THERE.
    in side,name is CMP.
    the OP has no Distributor, at all.

  • Anonymous Dec 27, 2016

    sure its easy!
    the PCM< told you 2 things, scanned
    it's THERE! DTC errors for CMP.
    and it's bad.
    is this hard?
    it will report 1 in 10 pulses dead. if you were to look. (means scan it)

    then you opened the SM service manual
    and see that here are 2 engines
    and 2 very different CMP sensors planted
    location are not the same on the 2 engines
    2003, (VVT engine is not like the non VVT engine)
    fact.

Cadillac cts 2003 3.2l engine the timing belt jumped time i replaced the set it back on the timing marks an it didn't start i a code po 341 so replaced the camshaft position sensor didn't start

The same thing happened to my 03 CTS. The camshaft position sensor code is often thrown for a variety of reasons. In my case somehow the ECM went when the timing belt jumped (after the serpentine belt broke). It was a bear to diagnose but after installing a rebuilt ECM it runs great. (Don't make the mistake I made: the cylinder head gaskets will fit nicely on either side but if not placed on the correct sides you'll block the single oil port which provides engine oil to the head)

I nee instructions on a cam sensor removal for a 1998 ford contor with a 16 vale 2.o over head cam engine

The camshaft sensor is located at the back of the head on driver side. Remove the wire,unscrew the sensor,screw the new sensor in the head and put the wire back on the sensor

The camshaft sensor is not in the back on the 98 4 cyl its right in front. All you need to do is take off the 3 bolts on the top of the heat shield and pull it back a bit and it will be right there.
