July 1: So it begins. Don't worry, this is not in the correct legal jurisdiction!

Speed Sensor Test

1. Disconnect 6-pin electrical connector at amplifier, then connect an ohmmeter between dark green/white (circuit 150) and black (circuit 57).
2. Ohmmeter should read approximately 200 ohms. If reading is satisfactory, proceed to step 3. If reading is zero, a shorted coil or wire is indicated.
3. Disconnect electrical connector from speed sensor, then connect an ohmmeter between speed sensor terminals at speed sensor end.
4. Ohmmeter should read approximately 200 ohms. A reading of 0 ohms indicates a shorted coil and a maximum reading indicates an open coil.
5. Replace sensor if reading is not satisfactory.
