Where is the camshaft sensor on a 2001 Ford F-350?

The exact location of the camshaft position sensor (CMP sensor) on a 2001 Ford F-350 depends heavily on the engine type. Ford F-350s from that year came with several different engines (like the Power Stroke diesel, various gas V8s).

To find it, you must know your engine's specific details. Then:

* Consult a repair manual: A Haynes or Chilton manual specific to your year and engine is your best bet. These manuals have diagrams and precise locations.

* Use an online repair database: Sites like AllDataDIY or Mitchell1 (subscription required) offer detailed diagrams and repair procedures.

* Look up your engine's specific information online: Search for "[Your Engine Code] camshaft position sensor location" (e.g., "7.3L Powerstroke camshaft position sensor location"). Replace "[Your Engine Code]" with your actual engine code, found on a sticker under the hood or on the driver's side door jamb.

Without knowing the engine type, giving a precise location is impossible. The sensor might be on the front of the engine, near the distributor (if applicable), or on the side of the engine block. It's usually a small, cylindrical sensor with a single wire connector.
