In this video I go over the camshaft position sensor replacement on a Ford Duratech 2.0L HE engine found in the 2012-2018 Ford Focus equipped with the DPS6 transmission. This engine actually has two camshaft position sensors. It has an intake camshaft position sensor and an exhaust camshaft position sensor. The process for replacing either is pretty much the same.

Of course, codes will have to be cleared after the camshaft position sensor is replaced if a code was set causing a check engine light to come on. If the code/codes cannot be cleared, due to not having the proper equipment, it may take a couple of drive cycles for the code to clear on its own. Note: a drive cycle is not necessarily a trip to the store. A drive cycle is completed after all "monitors" have been run by the PCM. The vehicle has to be driven in a very specific way to achieve this. A reputable repair manual will have all the criteria of a drive cycle outlined for you.

Always use "lint free" rags in and around the engine.

Please reference your repair manual for torque specifications.
