What was the problem you were having?
How did you know it was the Camshaft Position Sensor and not the Crankshaft Position Sensor?
The reason I ask is that there have been very few reported problems with the Cam Position Sensor but many problems with the Crank Position Sensor.

I broke the serpentine belt the other day, the truck ran fine before...
The idler pulley also broke.
Replace the parts,It's cranks an that it!
"I don't know", but i did replaced the crankshaft sensor like 2yrs ago!

it gave me 2 faults:

The location of B6/1 is on right side of the eng.. You must replace the Oring upon removal.
