Crankshaft Position Sensor

  1. Remove crankshaft position sensor from engine. DO NOT disconnect crankshaft position sensor harness connector. Turn ignition on (engine off).
  2. Connect negative lead of an analog voltmeter to ground. Rotate crankshaft position sensor shaft slowly by hand. Connect positive voltmeter lead to crankshaft position sensor connector terminal No. 1 (one-degree signal, J30; 90-degree signal, Q45). Voltage should fluctuate between zero and 5 volts. Move voltmeter positive lead to terminal No. 2 (120-degree signal, J30; one-degree signal, Q45). Voltage should again fluctuate between zero and 5 volts. See Fig 1 .
