WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Lexus GS 430. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Disconnect CMP sensor harness connector. Measure resistance between CMP sensor connector terminals (component side). Resistance should be 835-1400 ohms with engine temperature at 14-122°F (-10-50°C), or 1060-1645 ohms with engine temperature at 122-212°F (50-100°C). If resistance is as specified, go to next step. If resistance is not as specified, replace CMP sensor.
- Check for short or open circuit in wiring harness between ECM E2 connector and CMP sensor. See WIRING DIAGRAMS article. Repair wiring as necessary. If wiring harness is okay, go to next step.
- Remove and inspect CMP sensor. Also inspect signal plate. If problem exists, replace CMP sensor and/or signal plate as necessary. If problem does not exist, replace ECM.
