Located at the midline of the 2007 Toyota Camry v6 engine, the camshaft position sensor can be found on the right side of the engine, positioned either just below or on the valve cover of the cylinder head line under the engine's timing belt cover. The primary role of the camshaft sensor is to determine the camshaft's position in relation to the crankshaft. This information is crucial for the powertrain control module to calculate the appropriate amount of fuel needed for combustion and power delivery, thereby optimizing fuel injector and ignition system control. Signs of a defective sensor include the check engine light illuminating, difficulty starting the vehicle or failure to start at all, and erratic behavior such as jerking or surging when accelerating.
