Where is 2003 ford focus camshafts position sensor

Camshaft Position Sensor
The camshaft position (CMP) sensor detects the position of the camshaft. The CMP sensor identifies when piston No. 1 is on its compression stroke. A signal is then sent to the powertrain control module (PCM) and used for synchronizing the firing of sequential fuel injectors. The Coil On Plug (COP) Ignition applications also use the CMP signal to select the proper ignition coil to fire. The input circuit to the PCM is referred to as the CMP input or circuit.
There are two types of CMP sensors: the three pin connector Hall-effect type sensor (Figure 25) and the two pin connector variable reluctance sensor

Where exactly is the camshaft position sensor located?

Hello Nicole.
The Altima came with two possible engines in 2003.
If yours is the 4 cylinder the cam sensor is mounted on the left side end of the cylinder head.
If it is the 6 cylinder it is on the front cylinder head on the left side end.

To avoid confusion on left's and right's the proper way to determine this is as you are sitting in the drivers seat.
If you need further clarification, please ask me here.
Thank you for using FixYa.

Cam Shaft Sensor Problems

Had the same problem before on my 04 Neon SXT...camshaft sensor is on left side of engine block, take out the battery and to the left of it (face car) is the camshaft position sensor. To change it you'll have to move a few hoses but its plan to see there on the left side of the engine...pretty easy remove and replace. Fixed my problem of car not going above 2k RPM when i replaced the sensor.
