    I pulled the wires from my camshaft position sensor A bank 2 sensor by accident recently. The wires are red yellow and blue. I’ve bought an aftermarket connector with all black pigtails and have looked at the EWD for the 2012 tundra but do not see any camshaft position sensors with a blue wire. They all seem to be red, black, and yellow. Does anyone know which wire goes in which pin on the connector? Thanks

    Sometimes the wire colors vary depending on year and which engine you have. What is your truck exactly?

    I have the 2012 Tundra 4.6 L V8. After looking everywhere for a wiring diagram and finding one for the 2012 engine I have but which didn’t show any cam shaft sensors with a red, blue, yellow wire config, I went with the way the wires were left after being pulled out of the connector. That turned out to be correct as my check engine light is now off. Thanks for the reply!
