Default Camshaft Position Sensor (Bank 1)

Guys - quick question. I posted a rant about the troubles i had with this wire harness and it's been moved into the maintenance subforum if you care to read it.

2005 350z touring

I'm posting this question here as you all will probably answer this quicker - mods please allow this.

Can someone please peep into their engine bay and tell me the wire colors of the camshaft position sensor on the passenger side? 3 wires, left to right. It's right below the fuel dampener next to the battery compartment. Either a green or gray clip. A picture would be a bonus!! Thanks!

Thanks guys!

Yes, I have read the FSM but I'm too much of a layman to figure it out. Maybe someone can do that for me instead?

Here's the link - http://www.nicoclub.com/FSM/350Z/coupe/2005/

I believe it's in the "EC.PDF" under sectino EC-331 (pg 331)

Thanks alot!!!

I just looked at the 2006 FSM and it appears you should have these 3 colors:
P= Pink
B= Black
RL= Red with a Blue stripe

Are you sure it's Red Brown and Black? They look a bit dusty

they are different in different years so i wouldn't go by color. always go by pin location on the connector and on the ecu.

I understand that basic fact.

I have access to all FSM's, so what I was trying to do was to at least line his up with the FSM of his year model, which it didn't.

When I can do that, at the very least, then I can look at the FSM for my year model and figure out the combination.

I can't believe no one else on this board has an 05' that they'd be willing to look at for me. What a bummer.

ya, mostly 03/04 around here except a few HR's. Not many of the newer cars are boosted. A lot of people use the older platforms. I don't personally know anyone with an 05

OK if anyone searches for this, on my 05' 350z it's Red/White, Red then Black from left to right (Black closest to the fender).

A special thanks to the user "meatbag" for sourcing me a new plug and sending it to me from Texas. Bought a new sensor from my local infiniti dealer for $59.
