The Location of the Cam Position Sensor on the 1992 Park Avenue
Before changing the camshaft sensor on your 1992 Buick Park Avenue, you must determine its location on the engine; the sensor is tucked away under the water pump, and while you can see it from the top of the engine, replacing it requires you to work under the front of the car. A replacement sensor is available from most auto parts stores or through a Buick dealership.
Instructions

Open the hood of your Park Avenue and locate the water pump on the front of the engine. You will see the water pump is the front-center of the engine block.
2Look near the base of the water pump pulley, along the bottom edge: You will see an electrical connector and harness.
3Follow the harness in toward the block, until you can see a small, round sensor threaded into the block--this is the camshaft sensor.
