Cam sensor is used for cylinder recognition. It informs engine ECU of the camshaft position when cylinder 1 ignites. The ECU needs this information for accurate fuel injection control and for adaptive knock control. If the sensor malfunctions the ECU attempts to use a random time for injector/spark actuation.
