Hello, I have an engine light on and OBD code came back as camshaft position sensor exhaust side. I ordered a new camshaft position sensor and plan to install it this weekend. My question is, do I have to do a camshaft position sensor relearn procedure afterwards? I searched everywhere and did not see anything saying it will need a relearn done, but I did see some cars do.

Hello,

See attached for the replacement procedure.
The manual does not call for relearning of the cam sensor for this vehicle.

Thank you.

That's great news considering I don't have a scan tool that can do a relearn if needed. Thank you so much for all your help and for the replacement procedure information you have been a huge help.
