Camshaft Position Sensor Plug for Ford Focus Escape Mercury Cougar Mazda Tribute 2.0L 2001-2004
Restore precise engine timing and eliminate crank-no-start conditions or erratic idling with the Camshaft Position Sensor Plug engineered for 2.0L modular powertrains. This direct-replacement connector provides a hermetically sealed interface that blocks moisture, oil seepage, and road vibration—the most common causes of failed camshaft signal delivery. Compatible with Ford Focus, Ford Escape, Mercury Cougar, and Mazda Tribute platforms, this assembly carries cross-reference identifiers including F5RZ6B288A, YF0918230, and 928F12K073A1E. Built with magnetic induction sensing architecture, the plug maintains consistent signal resolution so the vehicle computer accurately tracks camshaft rotation for smoother starts, optimized fuel mapping, and reduced exhaust emissions.
Benefits & Tips
- Designed as a bolt-in replacement, it eliminates messy electrical tape or soldered splice repairs while restoring factory-grade connector locking.
- Clean the mating terminals with an electrical contact cleaner before installation to remove oxidation that often mimics sensor failure.
- When dashboard diagnostics point to intermittent open-circuit signals around the camshaft circuit, swapping the connector rather than the entire sensor assembly frequently resolves the issue at a fraction of the cost.
