Questions about mobile camshaft position sensor replacement
What does the camshaft position sensor do?
The CMP sensor monitors camshaft position, allowing the ECM to determine which cylinder is on its compression stroke and precisely time fuel injection and ignition. A failed CMP sensor causes the ECM to fall back to a less precise timing mode, causing rough idle, hard starting, hesitation, and on some vehicles, complete no-start.
What are symptoms of a bad camshaft position sensor?
Check engine light with codes P0340–P0345 (cam position sensor circuit), rough running especially when cold, poor cold-start performance, hesitation at light throttle, engine stalling, or no-start on some vehicle applications (particularly Chrysler/Dodge products that rely heavily on the CMP sensor for starting).
Can a mobile mechanic replace a camshaft position sensor?
Yes. Most CMP sensors are bolt-in replacements with a single electrical connector, accessible from the top of the engine. The mechanic clears codes after installation and verifies operation with live data monitoring. Service takes 30–60 minutes on most applications.
How much does mobile CMP sensor replacement cost?
Camshaft position sensor replacement: $80–$200 for parts and labor. The sensor itself: $25–$80 for most applications. Some V6 and V8 engines have multiple CMP sensors (one per bank) — the faulty one is identified by the specific code stored. These are typical ranges and best estimates, not fixed prices: you see your price before you pay, and any change is shown before you pay more.
