Keep engine timing accurate and fueling on point with the Standard Ignition Engine Camshaft Position Sensor (PC288). This camshaft sensor tracks the position of the rotating cam and reports it to the engine control module so the ECM can time fuel delivery and ignition correctly. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for many BMW vehicles, among them the 1994-1995 BMW 530i, 1994-1995 BMW 540i and 1993-1995 BMW 740i. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine-level details.

  • Accurate Timing: Custom magnetic circuit programming and performance testing help provide precise calibration between the target wheel and the sensor output.
  • Superior Operation: Integrated with an analog-to-digital converter plus adaptive switch points for quick processing to adjust fuel and timing.
  • Extensive Testing: End-of-line checks for timing, pulse width, and signal amplitude, along with in-lab vibration and extreme-temperature testing, support reliable performance.
  • BMW Application: Specifically engineered for the listed BMW vehicles.

Signs the original camshaft position sensor may need replacing include a check-engine light, hard starting, stalling, or a rough or erratic idle. Diagnose the cause before replacing; if a failed camshaft position sensor is behind the symptom, this unit replaces it.
