Crankshaft Position Sensor: Testing and Inspection

NOTICE: "Cold" and "Hot" in the following sentences express the temperature of the sensor itself.
"Cold" is from -1O°C (14°F) to 50°C (122°F) and
"Hot" is from 50°C (122°F) to 100°C (212°F).




1. DISCONNECT CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR CONNECTOR FROM GENERATOR DRIVE BELT ADJUSTING BAR




2. INSPECT CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR RESISTANCE
- Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between terminals.

Resistance:
Cold: 985 - 1,600 Ohms
Hot: 1,265 - 1,890 Ohms

- If the resistance is not as specified, replace the crankshaft position sensor.
3. RECONNECT CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR CONNECTOR
