Where is 2003 ford focus camshafts position sensor

Hi Rusty, There's two links below showing the position of 2005 Ford Explorer Crankshaft Position Sensor and the 2008 ford edge camshaft sensor location. It seems like they're all in the same position, I hope this helps.....CHEERS

2005 Ford Explorer Crankshaft Position Sensor Location

2008 ford edge camshaft sensor location

Hi James,i have a 2004 Lincoln LS with the 3.0 engine,mine is Cashmere in color,here's a link to your camshaft sensor. Repair Guides Component Locations Camshaft Position cmp Sensor AutoZone com Here's what they look like,2 of them. Camshaft Position Sensor at AutoZone com Best Camshaft Position Sensor...

The camshaft position sensor is located on top of the engine near the ignition coils.
The camshaft position sensor is located on top of the engine near the ignition coils.
The camshaft position sensor is located on the engine near the timing belt cover and under the upper radiator hose.
The camshaft position sensor is either located near the top of the engine, passenger-s side, or on the right side of the engine near the ignition coils.
The camshaft position sensor is located on the engine near the camshaft pulley.
This sensor is located at the front of the engine near the camshaft gear this is what I got 6 different locations manual covers 99-05

This is a Code for the Camshaft sensor circuit. It can be the camshaft sensor, the wiring loom, or the PCM it reports to.

A lot depends on if the car runs at all. The wiring loom and the camshaft sensor can be checked for continuity with an Ohmmeter. The PCM is an expensive part and is delicate. Testing is more involved.

Hopefully the first few things you look at will reveal the defect.

We would recommend taking a look at the front of your motor, by either of the camshafts and where they exit the head(s). The sensor is either a optical or hall effect sensor, so try and find a housing that is near or around your intake or exhaust camshaft ( or just single camshaft) for the location of your camshaft position sensor

the camshaft position sensor is right around the crankshaft. there is a magnetic wheel at the end of the camshaft that the sensor uses to produce the signal.

The camshaft position sensor sends a signal to the PCM, powertrain control module. The PCM then determines spark plug firing. Could be the camshaft position sensor.

1996 is all I have
Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor 3.0L (2V) Engine
The camshaft position sensor (CMP sensor) (12126):

• is a single Hall-effect magnetic switch activated by a single vane which is driven by the camshaft (6250).
• provides camshaft position information which is used by the ignition coil (12029) and the powertrain control module (PCM) (12A650) for fuel synchronization.

3.0L (4V) Engine
The camshaft position sensor (CMP sensor) (6B288) is:

• a variable reluctance sensor.
• triggered by the high-point mark on the LH exhaust camshaft sprocket (6256).

3.0L (2V) Engine
SPECIAL SERVICE TOOL(S) REQUIRED Description Tool Number Syncro Positioning Tool T95T-12200-A
CAUTION: Prior to removal of the camshaft position sensor (CMP sensor) (12126), set cylinder No.1 to zero degrees top dead center (TDC) of compression stroke. Then note the position of the camshaft position sensor electrical connector. The installation procedure requires that the connector be located in the same position.
Removal

1. Disconnect battery ground cable. Refer to Section 14-01 .
   

1. Disconnect engine control sensor wiring connector from camshaft position sensor.
   

1. Remove camshaft position sensor retaining screws and camshaft position sensor from camshaft position sensor housing.
   

1. If removing camshaft position sensor housing from the cylinder block (6010), proceed with Removal Step 5. If not removing camshaft position sensor housing, proceed to installation Step 6.
   

1. Remove hold-down clamp (bolt and washer assembly).
   

1. Remove camshaft position sensor housing from cylinder block.
   

Installation

1. CAUTION: A special service tool such as Syncro Positioning Tool T95T-12200-A must be obtained prior to installation of the replacement camshaft position sensor. Failure to follow this procedure will result in improper camshaft position sensor alignment. This will result in the fuel system being out of time with the engine, possibly causing engine damage.
   Attach Syncro Positioning Tool T95T-12200-A as follows:
   
   1. Engage camshaft position sensor housing vane into the radial slot of the tool.
   1. Rotate tool on camshaft position sensor housing until tool boss engages notch in camshaft position sensor housing.

1. Pre-lubricate synchronizer gear with engine oil meeting Ford specification ESE-M2C123-A prior to assembly.
   

1. Install camshaft position sensor housing so that drive gear engagement occurs when arrow on locator tool is pointed approximately 75 degrees counterclockwise from the rear face of the cylinder block. This step will locate camshaft position sensor electrical connector in the pre-removal position.
   

1. Roatate Syncro Positioning Tool T95T-12200-A clockwise slightly. This will engage oil pump intermediate shaft. Push downward while adjusting Syncro Positioning Tool T95T-12200-A until the Syncro Gear engages the camshaft gear.
   

1. When synchronizer flange is fully seated against block, the installation tool should be facing counterclockwise of engine centerline approximately 33 to 45 degrees.
   

1. Install hold-down clamp (washer and bolt) and tighten bolt to 19-30 Nm (14-22 lb-ft).
   

1. Remove Syncro Positioning Tool T95T-12200-A.
   

1. CAUTION: If camshaft position sensor electrical connector is not positioned properly, DO NOT reposition the connector by rotating the camshaft position sensor housing. This will result in the fuel system being out of time with the engine, possibly causing engine damage. Remove the camshaft position sensor housing and repeat installation procedure, beginning with Step 1.
   Install camshaft position sensor and retaining screws. Tighten screws to 1.5-4.0 Nm (13-35 lb-in).
   

1. Connect engine control sensor wiring connector to camshaft position sensor.
   

1. Connect battery ground cable.

The Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor detects the position of the camshaft in order to identifiy when piston No. 1 is on its compression stroke. The CMP sensor is used for ignition timing in the Ford DIS igntion system, but not in the EDIS igntion system. Both DIS/EDIS use the CMP signal for synchronizing the firing of sequential fuel injectors.

On the 3.0L vulcan engine, the CMP signal is generated by a single Hall-Effect magnetic switch, activated by a single "vane" spinning around by virture of a synchronized shaft which is driven by the camshaft. 

The CMP sensor & synchronizer/shaft are located behind the intake manifold (i.e., back near the firewall on a Ranger) on the top of the cylinder block. If you just need to replace the sensor, it is a simple job of unplugging the electrical connector and removing the screws holding the sensor in place. Here is a sketch of the sensor to give you an idea what to look for:
