While the sensor is decidedly part of the circuit, you need to test the wires between the sensor and the PCM. You also need to look for corrosion at any applicable electrical connectors. I don't think your rough idle problem is related to the cam sensor failure.

We recommend Torque Pro. A properly running engine is essentially the precise timing of gasoline-fueled explosions. Depending on engine speed RPM and load the engine control unit ECU controls the timing and amount of fuel injection, timing of spark ignition, and in the case of engines with variable valve timing VVT , intake- and exhaust-valve timing adjustments.
