Camshaft Position Sensor: Testing and Inspection

CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSORS INSPECTION

NOTICE: Cold and Hot in these sentences express the temperature of the sensors themselves.
"Cold" is from - 10°C (14°F) to 50°C (122°F).
"Hot" is from 50°C(122° F) to 100°C (212°F).

1. REMOVE V-BANK COVER.
2. REMOVE BATTERY CLAMP COVER.
3. REMOVE AIR CLEANER INLET.



4. DISCONNECT CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR CONNECTORS.
5. INSPECT CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR RESISTANCE.



- Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between terminals.

Sensor Resistance:
- Cold: 835 - 1,400 0hms
- Hot: 1,060 - 1,645 0hms

- If the resistance is not as specified, replace the camshaft position sensor

6. RECONNECT CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR CONNECTORS.
7. REINSTALL AIR CLEANER INLET.
8. REINSTALL BATTERY CLAMP COVER.
9. REINSTALL V-BANK COVER.
