Where is the camshaft sensor in a 1998 dodge ram 2500 5.9L gas engine?

The camshaft position sensor (CMP sensor) on a 1998 Dodge Ram 2500 5.9L gasoline engine is located on the passenger side (right side) of the engine, near the front. It's usually mounted on the cylinder head, fairly close to the distributor (if it has one; some 5.9Ls did, some didn't).

It's important to note that without visual confirmation it's difficult to give an exact location. A repair manual specific to your year and engine will provide the best and most accurate placement. You'll find diagrams and photos there. Online parts stores also often have diagrams when you search for the sensor itself.
