Default Camshaft Sensor problem.

Does anyone know where I could find the camshaft sensor on a 2000 Intrepid 2.7, and how to replace it?

i have a pic if needed, but here is the description from the manual.


REMOVAL - 2.7L
The camshaft position sensor is mounted in the
front of the head.
(1) Disconnect electrical connector from sensor.
(2) Remove camshaft position sensor screw.
(3) Without pulling on the connector, pull the sensor
out of the chain case cover.

INSTALLATION - 2.7L
The camshaft position sensor is mounted in the
front of the head.
(1) Install sensor in the chain case cover and push
sensor in until contact is made with the boss on the
head. While holding the sensor in this position,
install and tighten the retaining bolt to 12 N·m (105
in. lbs.) torque.
(2) Attach electrical connector to sensor.

If anyone has a suspected cam sensor problem with a 2.7L and it will not start at all, disconnect the plug without removing the sensor itself and crank the engine for about 10 seconds. If the car fires up, the sensor is bad. The engine management systems on these cars allow the engine to run up to 2500 RPM with the cam sensor unplugged (not removed). It will not run at all if the sensor is bad and still plugged in however.
