Code 9, CRK/CYL Sensor

  1. Turn ignition off and disconnect alternator sense fuse in under-hood relay box for 10 seconds to reset ECU. Start engine and observe PGM-FI warning light. If light is off, problem is intermittent. Test drive and check again.
  2. If light is on, turn engine off. Disconnect sensor connector near CRK/CYL sensor. Measure resistance between White and Orange wire terminals at sensor. If reading is not 500-1000 ohms, replace sensor. If reading is within specification, proceed to next step.
  3. Check continuity between ground and White wire terminal. Check continuity between ground and Orange wire terminal. If continuity exists, sensor is shorted to ground. Replace sensor. If no continuity exists, proceed to next step.
  4. Reconnect sensor connector. Attach system checker harness to right side wire harness only, not to ECU. Check resistance between connector terminals C1 and C2. Resistance should be 500-1000 ohms.
  5. If resistance not within specification, repair open in Orange and/or White wire. If resistance is within specification, substitute a known good ECU. If condition is rectified, replace original ECU.
