NOTE:
- Before performing the following inspection, make sure to follow the procedure as indicated in the troubleshooting flowchart. Description and Operation

Visual Inspection

1. Remove the CKP sensor. Service and Repair

2. Verify that there are no metal shavings on the CKP sensor.

3. Install the CKP sensor. Service and Repair

Resistance Inspection

1. Remove the CKP sensor connector.

2. Measure the resistance between the CKP sensor terminals.

- If not within the specification, replace the CKP sensor. Service and Repair
- If the monitor item status/specification (reference) is not within the specification, even though the resistance is within the specification, perform the "Circuit Open/Short Inspection".
