Spectra S10459 Camshaft Position Sensor
The Spectra S10459 engine camshaft position sensor helps provide the signal needed for ignition timing and injector synchronization. It is a direct-fit replacement for select Mercedes-Benz applications, including Mercedes-Benz C230, SLK230, S320, and E320 models listed below.
- Engine camshaft position sensor for ignition timing and cylinder synchronization
- Supports accurate firing sequence control by reporting camshaft position to the engine management system
- OE-style replacement for select Mercedes-Benz applications
- Cross-references Standard Ignition PC379 for the same application
Fitment Details
Compatible With 1998-2000 Mercedes-Benz C230, N/A. Compatible With 1998-2000 Mercedes-Benz SLK230, N/A. Compatible With 1998 Mercedes-Benz S320, N/A. Compatible With 1996 Mercedes-Benz E320, N/A.
This part cross-references Standard Ignition PC379 for the same application.
How It Works
The camshaft position sensor reports camshaft position to the engine control system so ignition timing and fuel injector sequencing stay aligned with engine operation. For Mercedes-Benz C230, SLK230, S320, and E320 applications, the Spectra S10459 is used as a replacement sensor when the original unit is no longer performing correctly.
Common Issues It May Resolve
- Hard starting or extended crank time
- Intermittent stalling
- Check engine light related to camshaft position signal faults
- Rough idle or misfire symptoms tied to timing input errors
- Loss of synchronization between injector and coil firing sequence
Installation Notes
Verify the connector style and engine application before installation. Clear diagnostic trouble codes after replacement and confirm proper sensor signal with a scan tool if needed. Always compare the removed part to the replacement sensor to confirm fitment for your Mercedes-Benz C230, SLK230, S320, or E320.
Quality Assurance
Spectra manufactures ignition and sensor components for replacement use in engine management systems. The S10459 is built to serve the camshaft position sensing function required for the listed Mercedes-Benz applications.
