★ Top Answer
The location of the camshaft position sensor in a Hyundai Accent 2012 varies depending on the specific make and model, but it will typically be positioned close to the crankshaft. Replacing the sensor can range in cost from $190 to $300, with an additional $200 for installation labor. The sensor plays a crucial role in ensuring the crankshaft rotates at the accurate speed. If the sensor malfunctions, it can lead to various issues such as engine stalling, shaking, rough acceleration, and the illumination of the check engine light. These problems occur due to incorrect engine timing and misfiring. Furthermore, continued operation with a faulty sensor can impose additional strain on the engine, potentially resulting in further damage and higher repair costs over time.
