Walker Products 235-1809 camshaft position sensor for the 1998 Chevrolet Camaro V8 5.7L and other vehicles reports camshaft position to the ignition, engine or powertrain control module. As the camshaft turns, a magnet moves past the Hall-effect sensor and produces a voltage signal that the engine control module uses to time fuel injection and ignition.
- Hall-effect sensing that generates a voltage signal as the magnet passes
- Tracks camshaft position to support precise variable valve timing
- Works with the crankshaft position sensor and the ECU to keep ignition timing and fuel supply correct
- Designed to withstand temperature fluctuations, vibration and engine fluids
