CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR INSPECTION

NOTICE: "Cold" and "Hot" in these sentences express the temperature of the sensors themselves. "Cold" is from -10°C (14°F) to 50°C (122°F) and "Hot" is from 50°C (122°F) to 100°C (212°F).





INSPECT CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR RESISTANCE
Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between terminals.

Resistance:
Cold: 1,630 - 2,740 Ohms
Hot: 2,065 - 3,225 Ohms


If the resistance is not as specified, replace the crank shaft position sensor.
