2006 Legacy:Cam follower sensor wires (2) can they be reversed and still work?

Featured Replies

Installed new cam follower sensor and the wires were completely different to what the car’s harness has. So I set the sensor in place and went by which wire I felt was closer to the ones on the harness. 
 

Still throwing the code sometimes. Car will run but seems like it’s in a default mode. If I press the gas pedal it’ll be very choppy at the first couple thousand RPMs but runs pretty well around 3k and then some. 
 

2006 Outback wagon. 2.5 n/a engine. 
 

Thanks! 

 

I got my cam sensor wires the wrong way around on an engine conversion/bastardisation and it ran extremely poorly. 

Swapped those around and it purred like a subi kitten… This was on a 2002 harness. 

Cheers

Thanks ! I’ll swap them over as soon as life stops pulling me around to everything but my car repairs.
