Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP)

TESTING

Except SVX

1. Disconnect the CKP sensor harness.
2. Connect a voltmeter across the CKP sensor terminals.
3. Crank the engine. Voltage should vary around 0.1 volt alternating current and in time with engine movement.
4. If the CKP sensor tests satisfactorily, check the CKP sensor harness.

SVX

1. Remove the CKP sensor from the engine.
2. Connect a lab-type oscilloscope across the CKP terminals. Set the voltage scale to low level.
3. Wave a magnet past the CKP pickup area. The magnet should pass as close as possible without contacting the CKP sensor.
4. Examine the waveform on the oscilloscope as the magnet passes pickup. A waveform should appear as the magnet passes. If no waveform is present, replace the CKP sensor.
