Detailed Description

The Motorad 1CS126 camshaft position sensor monitors camshaft position and sends the signal needed for accurate ignition and fuel control. This helps maintain proper engine operation in vehicles such as the 1994-1999 Buick Century, 1993-1996 Buick Regal, 1995-1999 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, 1993-1995 Chevrolet Camaro, and 1993-1995 Pontiac Firebird. This part cross-references common OE-style numbers such as 213142 and 917712 for the same application.

With a female oblong connector, male blade terminals, and no wiring harness or mounting bracket included, this sensor is built to match the original connection style on supported vehicles. The Motorad 1CS126 is also listed across multiple GM platforms, including Oldsmobile Silhouette, Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, Pontiac Trans Sport, and Chevrolet Lumina APV.

What This Sensor Helps Address

• Camshaft position signal loss or intermittent signal faults
• Hard starting related to incorrect engine timing input
• Rough idle caused by inconsistent sensor readings
• Check engine light conditions tied to camshaft sensor performance
• Driveability issues on GM vehicles with failing OE-style sensors
