2006 Dodge Dakota 4.7 liter magnum camshaft position sensor location?

The camshaft position sensor (CMP) on a 2006 Dodge Dakota with the 4.7L Magnum 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 front cover.

It's a relatively small sensor, and you might need a light to see it clearly. You'll likely need to remove some plastic engine covers to get a good view of it. A repair manual or online image search showing the 4.7L Magnum engine will greatly assist in locating the exact position. Be careful when working in that area, as it's near belts and other moving parts.
