Engine Camshaft Position Sensor for Subaru Applications

Standard Ignition PC1208 is a new engine camshaft position sensor built for direct replacement service on select Subaru vehicles. It uses a female oval plug-in connector with three male blade terminals for a straightforward electrical connection.

Compatible with Subaru Crosstrek, Legacy, Outback, Ascent, and Impreza applications, this camshaft position sensor supports accurate camshaft signal input for engine management. The PC1208 is a practical OE-style replacement for diagnosing or correcting camshaft signal-related drivability concerns.

Key Features

  • Engine camshaft position sensor for ignition and engine management systems
  • Standard Ignition PC1208 replacement part number
  • Female connector with oval plug-in design

Detailed Description

Standard Ignition PC1208 is engineered as a replacement camshaft position sensor for Subaru models that require a reliable cam signal for proper engine timing and control. It is compatible with 2024-2025 Subaru Crosstrek, 2018-2022 Subaru Legacy, 2018-2022 Subaru Outback, 2019-2021 Subaru Ascent, 2017-2021 Subaru Impreza, and 2017 Subaru Legacy from 04/2017. The PC1208 helps restore the signal the engine control system uses to monitor camshaft position, supporting consistent operation across these Subaru applications.

What It Helps Address

  • Camshaft position sensor fault codes
  • Hard starting or extended crank conditions tied to cam signal loss
  • Rough idle caused by incorrect camshaft position input
  • Intermittent stalling related to sensor signal interruption
  • Engine performance issues from inaccurate timing data

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector shape, terminal style, and vehicle application before installation. This part uses a female, oval, plug-in connector with three male blade terminals, so matching the harness connection is important. Confirm the exact Subaru model year and, for 2017 Legacy applications, the 04/2017 build note before ordering or installing.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition supplies this sensor as a new replacement component for service use. The part number PC1208 is listed with direct interchange coverage for Subaru 22056AA28A and related reference numbers, helping support accurate part matching for Subaru Crosstrek, Legacy, Outback, Ascent, and Impreza repairs.
