M50 cam and crank sensor

[Stevoyayaya3]

Is there a difference? I have m50nv and order what I thought was a camshaft sensor. Went to change it out and noticed it had a female connector instead of the male. Is there a difference? I researched but kept coming up with different variations of both sensors. Thanks guys

m50NV will have a MALE connector at the sensor whereas the newer m50's will have a FEMALE connector at the sensor.

Ok I got the male connector and now once your insert the sensor in the bolt hole doesn't line up. Lol this car is becoming frustrating. Anyone have the correct part number? Thanks guys

I ran into this problem too. I haven't tried to start my car yet, but when I was installing the harness, I thought my cam/crank connectors were missed labeled because of the male/female plugs so I switched them around. I'm going to have to look into this more.

Ya any help would be great. Cause the car ran great before then. I have put in a diff ecu and new Bosch under the car fuel pump. Also have got new dme and fuel pump relay. I jumped the fuel relay spot and heard my external fuel pump kick in. I used to hear the in tank set up but couldn't here anything. Any idea guys?
