Wanted: Bosch cam sensor 0 232 103 022

[Flat on my back]

If you search for this it comes up as fitted to 97-Porsche 911, Boxster and Cayenne models.

Anyone help me out...know any good breakers for Porkers.

Dont want to blow £70 on a new just yet.

Why would you look for used for a part that takes a lot of work to replace? Makes no sense.

If you are going cheap@ssed, why not buy the BBHME301 Hall effects vane sender from BB AutoMacao, the subject of at least one group buy on this forum:

Here is a complete replacement procedure (for an AAN):

Because...

I'm not planning on fitting the cam sensor where you think...

Remove dizzy gear, fit wheel to end of cam and have the sensor going through the top of the cam cover...

So there...

No offense but that seems like a lot of squarewheel engineering to me, given there is a bracket available from a forum member here from Norway (name is escaping me) that will convert a 3B head to run the AAN/ABY/ADU cam sensor.

Simple...

For 2 reasons:-

1.far easier to change in the event of failure,
2.far less likely to fail as it wont be exsposed to the same extreme heat cycles as one mounted under the pulley wheel.

Easy...as seen on many other h.p cars.

Back on topic please.

P.S. given the choice to re-engineer the position i sure as hell wouldn't put it 'a la' aby ever again.

Name of the contact for the G40 CPS bracket

It's Rune Helgeland at:

I see now that the bracket is to convert a 7A head but it must be very much the same for a 3B head:

Oh what a fluke find - I need that for my 7A head - long since collecting dust in the garage - partly ported - almost forgotten.

This other option is funky though - like to see how it turns out.

Just a thought - there might be a current off the shelf hall effect device from Bosch that could work in this position. I'll hit the books and that Bosch motorsport catalog - you know the one - with the box of tissues beside it

That sensor wheel needs to be on accurately though as the CMP pulse has to arrive in a prescribed time - have you used the original pulley to time where the gap is ?

[Flat on my back]

Paul.

That's where i found it...thanks to you...

Once i have the wheel machined up proper i'll fit it to a drill and check the o/p pulse is clean for the whole rev range.

Then i need to accurately fit it to the cam cover...slightly trickier.

The wheel will rotate on the end of the cam and held in the correct position with a grub screw or bolt to allow timing adjustment...not pressed on.

Ahahhh - less work for me then !

Shouldn't have been a "fluke". Rune posted here sometime ago and I got in contact with him via a forum-based PM.

I haven't "talked" with him in awhile.
