Default Cam sencor bad - now what?

My mechanic tells me my cam sensor is bad!

I did not know there was a cam sensor in Gen 3 engines. Where is this? I did not see any sensor when I changed the cam 1.5 years ago. I thought the only internal sensors were; 1. knock sensors under the valley cover and , 2. reluctor wheel sensor?


Any thoughts?

Thanks...

Thanx....

Can I buy this at a parts store or is this a dealer item only?
