Camshaft sensor replacement Nissan Note 2004 - 2012

Note:

The camshaft position sensor of the HR16DE and CR14DE engines is installed in the cylinder head bore opposite the intake camshaft on the water distributor side. 

In the event of a malfunction in the sensor circuit, the controller stores a malfunction code in the memory and uses the bypass engine control program 
(without the involvement of the variable valve timing system). 

Replacing the Nissan Note camshaft position sensor on HR16DE and CR14DE engines is carried out in the same way. An example is shown on the CR14DE engine.
