Keep your Volvo's fuel and ignition timing on schedule with the Standard Ignition Engine Camshaft Position Sensor PC280. This camshaft position sensor is a direct-fit replacement for the 1992-1997 Volvo 960, 1993-1997 Volvo 850, 1997-1998 Volvo S90, 1997-1998 Volvo V90, 1998-1999 Volvo C70, 1998 Volvo S70, and 1998 Volvo V70.
Signs the original sensor may need replacing include hard starting or a no-start condition, stalling, a rough or intermittent misfire, and an illuminated check engine light. Because these symptoms can have other causes, diagnose the fault before replacing — if a failed camshaft position sensor is the cause, this PC280 replaces it.
