Crank Angle Sensor Resistance

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1994 Mazda RX-7. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Disconnect crank angle sensor connector. Crank angle sensor is a separate unit located at front of crankshaft. Measure resistance between terminals. See Fig 1 . If resistance is not as indicated, replace crank angle sensor.
If ignition coil resistance and crank angle sensor test okay, check for spark. If spark is still not present, go to HALL-EFFECT SENSORS test procedure.
