I’m installing a cam sensor (three wire hall) with a cable with two wires and shield. Never done this before so I’m wondering if one of the two wires can be used for 5v power. I have read where the ground needs to go to ecu sensor ground. Can I run the 5v power next to the signal wire? Or do I use the second wire to ecu ground and then run a separate wire for power? Thanks. Tony
