Camshaft Position Sensor: Testing and Inspection
CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSORS INSPECTION
NOTICE: "Cold" and "Hot" in the following sentences express the temperature of the sensors themselves.
"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 connectors.
2. Inspect camshaft position sensor resistance.
- Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between terminals.
Resistance:
Cold
NIPPONDENSO
835 - 1,400 Ohms
ASIAN
985 - 1,600 Ohms
Hot
NIPPONDENSO
1,060 - 1,645 Ohms
ASIAN
1,265 - 1,890 Ohms
- If the resistance is not as specified, replace the camshaft position sensor.
3. Reconnect camshaft position sensor connectors.
