Effects of a Faulty Camshaft Position Sensor?

[CadenDella]

Effects of a faulty camshaft position sensor are as follows: 1. Difficulty or inability to start the engine, meaning poor ignition. This is because the camshaft position sensor can predict the ignition sequence. If it malfunctions, starting the engine naturally becomes difficult. 2. Increased fuel consumption. If the camshaft position sensor fails, the vehicle's computer cannot accurately control fuel injection, leading to higher fuel consumption. 3. Reduced power and engine weakness. A faulty camshaft position sensor prevents the vehicle's computer from detecting changes in the camshaft's position, thereby affecting the intake and exhaust volumes, resulting in decreased power. 4. Increased likelihood of engine knocking. 5. Illumination of the engine warning light.
