Camshaft Position Sensor: Inspection

INSPECT CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR

Check the resistance.

Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between the terminals.

Standard

STANDARD REFERENCE CHART

Tester Connection	Specified Condition
1 (G+) - 2 (G-)	835 to 1,400 Ω at COLD
1 (G+) - 2 (G-)	1,060 to 1,645 Ω at HOT

HINT:

Cold and Hot mean the temperature of the coils themselves. Cold is from -10 to 50°C (14 to 122°F) and Hot is from 50 to 100°C (122 to 212°F).

If the result is not as specified, replace the camshaft position sensor.
