If you have the 1.9 SOHC, you don't have one. If you are getting an error code for a bad camshaft sensor, you either have a bad spark plug wire (#1) or corrosion where the plug wires go to the coils.
Swap wires from cylinder 1 to cylinder 2, and see if the check engine light goes away. (This is common on the staurn) If it does, replace the wire set.

Your "transmission high input sensor" is also known as a "neutral safety switch". It depends on you trans (auto, or standard) as to the location. Either way, it's a simple and inexpensive repair.

2002 saturn sl1 camshaft position sensor

I hate to tell you this, but there is not Camshaft Position Sensor on any 1.9L Single or Dual OHC. I assume you had someone read a Diagnostic Trouble Code from your PCM. They probably told you that you needed a Camshaft Position Sensor, and then offered to sell you one. I would recommend changing your spark plugs and your plug cables with FACTORY REPLACEMENTS. This will usually make the DTC go away. Aftermarket plugs and wires rarely work well for this engine. If you are looking for a CRANKSHAFT position sensor, look between the engine and transmission on the back side of the transmission. It is also known as the "transmission input speed sensor". More often than not though, your engine will not fire up if the Crank position sensor is not working. Hope this helps.
