Are you sure that is an XJ?

Anything in this thread look familiar?

Welcome to the forum.

The Cherokee XJ was not offered w/ the 5.2L V8 engine.

My guess is the inquiry is instead about the 1997 Grand Cherokee ZJ w/ the 5.2L V8 engine.

Step 2, the 5.2L has a crankshaft position sensor, CPS, not a camshaft position sensor.

After the engine is installed, replace the CPS, not before, to avoid physical damage to the CPS.

The mating connector is part of the vehicle harness, on the passenger side of the chassis. It is not part of the engine harness.
