Abstract
A rotary position sensor for determining the rotary position of a rotary component may include a sensor and a magnet. The sensor may be responsive to a characteristic of a magnetic field that changes as the magnetic field moves. The magnet may be carried by the rotary component for rotation with the rotary component and have an anti-rotation feature to prevent rotation of the magnet relative to the rotary component to maintain a desired rotary position of the magnet.
