Where is the camshaft sensor on a 1999 Oldsmobile silhouette?

The camshaft position sensor (CMP sensor) on a 1999 Oldsmobile Silhouette (which used the 3.4L V6 engine) is typically located on the passenger side of the engine, near the front of the cylinder head. It's usually mounted on the cylinder head itself, and points towards the camshaft.

However, the exact location can vary slightly depending on the specific engine configuration. It's best to consult a repair manual specific to your 1999 Oldsmobile Silhouette's 3.4L V6 engine for a definitive location diagram and detailed instructions. A Haynes or Chilton manual would be a good resource. You can also use online repair databases, though they often require a subscription.

Important note: Before attempting any repairs yourself, make sure to disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent electrical shocks or damage to the vehicle's computer system.
