Diagnosis & Repair
- Disconnect distributor connector. Using ohmmeter, measure resistance between connector terminals No. 3 and 4. See Fig 1. Resistance should be 185-275 ohms (cold sensor) or 240-325 ohms (hot sensor).
- Replace distributor as necessary. If sensor is okay, check for open or short circuit in wiring harness between ECM and distributor. See appropriate wiring diagram in WIRING DIAGRAMS - 2.7L
article. Repair wiring as necessary.
- If wiring harness is okay, inspect sensor air gap. See BASIC TESTING - 2.7L
article. If air gap is not within specification, replace distributor. If air gap is within specification, replace ECM and retest.
