★ Top Answer
In a 2010 Kia Rio, the camshaft position sensor is located on the front side of the cylinder head, under the cover of the timing belt. It is responsible for monitoring the camshaft's rotation. The readings from this sensor need to align with the data provided by the crankshaft position sensor. Any discrepancy in these readings could trigger the ECU to register a mechanical issue. A malfunction in the camshaft position sensor can illuminate the check engine light and potentially lead to stalling. It is advisable to replace this sensor promptly, which typically costs between $170 and $235.
