Abstract
A camshaft phaser includes a stator defining a cavity and configured to receive power from an engine crankshaft. The phaser further includes a rotor supported within the cavity and rotatable relative to the stator. The rotor has a first face, a second face, and a first hole extending from the first face to the second face. A target wheel of the phaser has a plate portion configured to be read by a camshaft-position sensor and a hub portion seated on the first face. The hub portion defines a second hole that is aligned with the first hole. A pin extends through the first and second holes to rotationally align and secure the target wheel to the rotor.
