Crankshaft Position Sensor Resistance: RAV4

  1. Disconnect crankshaft position sensor electrical connector located near front of engine, just below generator. See Figure. Crankshaft position sensor is located behind lower timing belt cover, near crankshaft sprocket.
  2. Using ohmmeter, check resistance between electrical terminals on crankshaft position sensor. Ensure crankshaft position sensor resistance is within specification. See DISTRIBUTORLESS TYPE IGNITION SYSTEM CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR RESISTANCE  table.
  3. Replace crankshaft position sensor if resistance is not within specification. See IGNITION SYSTEM in REMOVAL, OVERHAUL & INSTALLATION - 4-CYLINDER article. Reinstall crankshaft position sensor electrical connector.
