Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector shape, terminal count, and vehicle application before installation. This sensor uses a 3-terminal blade layout with an oval female connector and male terminals, so matching the original connector style is important for proper fitment. Confirm the exact engine configuration on the vehicle, especially on applications with multiple sensors such as the 2008 Audi S6, which uses four camshaft position sensors per vehicle.
