Camshaft Position Sensor: Testing and Inspection
CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR INSPECTION
NOTICE: "Cold" and "Hot" in the following sentences express the temperature of the sensor itself.
"Cold" is from -10 °C (14 °F) to 50 °C (122 °F) and
"Hot" is from 50 °C (122 °F) to 100 °C (212 °F).
1. DISCONNECT CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR CONNECTOR
2. INSPECT CAMSHAFT 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 camshaft position sensor.
3. RECONNECT CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR CONNECTOR
