Where is the camshaft position sensor located on a 1999 Pontiac Grand Am?

The camshaft position sensor (CMP sensor) on a 1999 Pontiac Grand Am is typically located on the passenger side (right side) of the engine, near the front. It's usually mounted on the cylinder head, close to the camshaft sprocket or gear.

However, the *exact* location can vary slightly depending on the specific engine (2.4L or 3.1L, for example). To be certain, you should:

* Consult a repair manual: A Haynes or Chilton manual specific to your 1999 Pontiac Grand Am will have diagrams showing the precise location.

* Use an online parts diagram: Many auto parts websites (like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, etc.) allow you to enter your vehicle's year, make, and model to see a parts diagram. Look for the camshaft position sensor in the engine diagram.

Without knowing the exact engine type, providing a more precise location is difficult and could lead to incorrect information. Always refer to a reliable source like a repair manual or parts diagram for accurate placement.
