Crankshaft Position Sensor: Testing and Inspection

In the electronic engine control system utilized on this vehicle, two signals generated by the crank angle sensor are used by the ECU in its calculations for various outputs. When problems with these signals are detected, malfunction codes are set and can be retrieved from the on-board diagnostic system.

A faulty "Ne" signal will set malfunction code 02. A problem with the "G" signal will set malfunction code 03.

PICK-UP RESISTANCE CHECK

Crank Angle Sensor Resistance Check:






1. Unplug sensor connector.
2. Check resistance across connector terminals as described on image chart.
3. If not as specified, replace crank angle sensor.
