Where is the cam sensor location on a 1997 Buick Le Sabre?

The camshaft position sensor (CMP sensor) on a 1997 Buick LeSabre (assuming the 3.8L V6 engine, which was the most common) is typically located on the passenger side of the engine, near the front of the cylinder head. It's usually mounted in a fairly accessible spot, though the exact placement might vary slightly depending on the specific engine configuration.

To be absolutely certain, you should:

* Consult a repair manual specific to your 1997 Buick LeSabre: These manuals have diagrams showing the exact location of all sensors.

* Use a reliable online parts diagram: Sites like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, or RockAuto allow you to select your year, make, and model and view diagrams of the engine.

Looking at these resources will give you the most accurate location, avoiding any guesswork. Remember to be cautious when working around the engine and disconnect the battery negative terminal before starting any work.
