It is a new aftermarket sensor, sold as a single unit. Easy Life Markets sells it for Ford owners and workshops replacing a faulty camshaft position (CMP) sensor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe original listing title described this part as a crankshaft position sensor. However, the supplier's own specification lists the type as a camshaft position sensor, and Ford uses the 6B288 base number for camshaft position sensors. We have corrected the title so it matches the part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat the Sensor Does\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe camshaft position sensor tells the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Engine_control_unit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eengine control unit\u003c\/a\u003e where the camshaft is in its rotation.

Timing chain problems, a weak battery or damaged wiring can all produce similar symptoms. If the wiring checks out and the fault keeps coming back, especially when the engine is warm, replacing the sensor is the logical next step. Many drivers first notice a failing sensor when the engine will not restart after a short stop but starts once it has cooled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Sensor Is For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sensor suits Ford owners doing their own repairs, independent workshops, and anyone replacing a failed camshaft sensor with a matching part number.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCrankshaft vs Camshaft Sensor\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngines usually have both a crankshaft position sensor and one or more camshaft position sensors, and they can look similar. The crankshaft sensor reads the crankshaft or flywheel and is essential for the engine to start; the camshaft sensor reads the camshaft and helps the computer identify the firing order. This part is a camshaft position sensor. Make sure the fault code and the location of the part you are replacing point to the camshaft sensor before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Sensors Fail\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCamshaft sensors live close to hot engine parts and are exposed to oil, vibration and temperature changes. Over time the internal electronics can fail, often first when the engine is hot. Oil leaks into the connector and corroded terminals are also common causes of intermittent signals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this a crankshaft or camshaft sensor?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a camshaft position sensor, based on the supplier's specification and the Ford 6B288 part number.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it Ford-branded?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. It is an aftermarket replacement sold under the Ford reference number.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuy the Ford Camshaft Position Sensor at Easy Life Markets\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can order this sensor right here.
