Camshaft sensor 850 1995

Hi,

My 850 2.5se 10v has just lit up the engine check light.
Everything seems Ok (economy not great at present....) but it is flashing a camshaft position sensor error message. How easy a job is this on a Volvo?
I have done this jopb previously on a Vauxhall/GM, but cannot see any similar looking parts on my trusty Volvo.

Any help/articles would be gratefully appreciated!

Cheers

    The hardest part of replaceing the camm sensor is writeing the check for $160!

      Damn right - I've just been quoted £110, so I think I'll be looking for "used version". It's a lot of money for one piece of cable.....

    Very easy. It is on the back end of the engine on the aft camshaft. I think three bolts and an electrical connection. That's it.
