Spectra S10279 Camshaft Position Sensor

The Spectra S10279 engine camshaft position sensor helps the engine control system track camshaft position for accurate ignition timing and injector sequencing. It is a direct-fit replacement for select Mitsubishi vehicles, including Outlander, Outlander Sport, RVR, Lancer, and Outlander PHEV applications.

Key Features

• Engine camshaft position sensor for ignition and fuel synchronization
• Supports cylinder firing order detection for proper engine management
• OE-style replacement for select Mitsubishi models
• Part number S10279 for easy identification
• Cross-references Standard Ignition PC845

Detailed Description

The Spectra S10279 is built for vehicles that rely on precise camshaft signal input to coordinate ignition timing and fuel injector operation. In Mitsubishi Outlander, Mitsubishi Outlander Sport, Mitsubishi RVR, Mitsubishi Lancer, and Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV applications, a stable camshaft signal is critical for smooth starting, consistent idle quality, and correct engine control module operation. This part number, S10279, is a practical OE-style replacement for the listed fitments.

This part cross-references Standard Ignition PC845 for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

• Check engine light related to camshaft position signal faults
• Hard starting or extended crank conditions
• Rough idle caused by incorrect camshaft timing input
• Misfire or synchronization issues between fuel and ignition events
• Intermittent stalling tied to sensor signal loss
