Disconnect CMP sensor harness connector. CMP sensor is located in timing belt cover, in upper front of engine. Using ohmmeter, measure resistance between CMP sensor terminals. Resistance should be 950-1250 ohms. If resistance is not within specification, replace CMP sensor. If sensor is okay, check for open or short circuit in wire harness between CMP sensor 2-pin harness connector and PCM harness connector terminals No. 85 (Pink wire) and 87 (Blue wire). Check at CMP sensor 2-pin harness connector terminals (Blue wire) or (Pink wire) for short to power or ground. If short is present, repair or replace wire harness as necessary.
