Altitude Sensor

  1. Disconnect distributor high tension lead from distributor and connect to ground. Remove glove compartment and disconnect main connector from MCU. Disconnect connector terminal from potentiometer.
  2. Measure resistance between connector pins No. 14 and 18 of the main connector. Resistance should be 2.1-2.6K ohms.
  3. Measure resistance between connector pins No. 11 and 14. Resistance should be 200-3.6K ohms.
  4. If resistance is not to specification check wiring continuity. If wires have continuity replace altitude sensor.
