Information

Black sensors were faulty ones and ideally should be replaced with grey ones as a precaution, even if the problem doesn't exist.

Please remember that although it is advisable to disconnect the battery, it isn't a necessity. Remember that if you do disconnect your battery, please make sure that you have your radio codes to hand.


Tools Required.

Replacement grey camshaft sensor & a 8 or 10 mm socket (I can't remember which it is off hand)
