Crankshaft Position Sensor: Testing and Inspection

NOTE: "Cold" and "Hot" in these sentences express the temperature of the coils 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
a. Remove the engine under covers.
b. Disconnect the crankshaft position sensor connector.




c. 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 crankshaft position sensor.

d. Reconnect the crankshaft position sensor connector.
e. Reinstall the engine under covers.
