id0140s1006700
Purpose/Function
• Detects the camshaft speed as basic information for mainly determining the fuel injection timing.
• Detects the camshaft speed and sends it to the PCM as a CMP signal.
Construction
• Installed on the cylinder head.
• A MR (Magnetic Resistance) element has been adopted (as the detecting element) for detecting the camshaft speed.
Operation
• Sends the signal, which fluctuates according to the camshaft speed, to the PCM.
