How to replace the Camshaft Position Sensor on Bank 1 (Right Side) Intake on Cadillac XLR?

The first step to replace the right side Bank 1 intake camshaft position sensor is to remove the fuel injector sight shield. Correct reinstallation of sensors requires marking their connectors ahead of time because both electrical connectors may be interchangeable yet they must be used with their specific sensor. Remove the right bank intake camshaft position sensor by first detaching its electrical connector and breaking loose and removing the camshaft sensor retaining bolt. A visual check for damage or wear must be conducted on the camshaft sensor O-ring before setup. If the sensor contains any damage it should be replaced before further installation. Apply motor oil to the O-ring followed by right bank intake camshaft position sensor installation using the retaining bolt which needs tightness set to 10 N.m (89 lb in). The camshaft sensor electrical connector needs replacement followed by the fuel injector sight shield reinstallation. Testing the engine operation completes the process where you need to inspect the camshaft sensor for any evidence of oil leakage.
