Toyota 7FGU35 camshaft sensor location

Hello all,
I have purchased this sensor and cannot locate it on the 4.3 GM engine. It is NOT on the timing chain cover. Any help appreciated!! Thanks

Showing items 1 - 4 of 4 results.
if your trying to measure that signal with a volt meter you probably wont get a definitive reading. It pulses so fast your meter probably doesnt pick it up.
You'll need the diagnostic software to monitor whats going on in the ignition system, it has a graph readout along with digital readings that show that.
Of course there could also be a problem with the pickup sensor on the reluctor wheel.

just a thought

Hmmmm..
I am getting a very low voltage out of the purple/orange wire when spinning over (CMP -), but nothing at the grey/ brown (CMP+) wire.
Problem is no/ weak ignition fire and I am thinking the CMP- wire should pulse. Any ideas??
