The engine check light serves as a vital signal from your vehicle's onboard computer, indicating potential issues within the engine system. Among these concerns, problems associated with the camshaft sensor and its communication with the computer are particularly noteworthy.

The camshaft sensor plays a crucial role in the engine's operation by monitoring the position of the camshaft and providing essential data to the engine control module (ECM) for ignition timing and fuel injection. However, if the sensor loses communication with the ECM, it can lead to a range of issues, including erratic engine performance, rough idling, and difficulty starting the engine.

Loss of communication between the camshaft sensor and the ECM can occur due to various factors, such as damaged wiring, faulty connectors, or sensor malfunctions. Prompt diagnosis and repair by a qualified technician are essential to address this issue effectively.

Technicians can utilise diagnostic tools to retrieve error codes stored in the vehicle's computer system, providing valuable insights into the root cause of the communication failure. They can then inspect the camshaft sensor, wiring, and connectors for any signs of damage or malfunction, repairing or replacing components as needed to restore proper communication and engine function.
