TESTING
1.Measure the voltage between the sensor CKP sensor terminals by backprobing the sensor connector.
2.If the connector cannot be backprobed, fabricate or purchase a test harness.
3.Sensor voltage should be more than 0.1 volt AC with the engine running and should vary with engine RPM.
4.If voltage is not within specification, the sensor may be faulty.
I understand this procedure, but its kind of a catch 22. How can i test the sensor by running the car if the car wont run because the sensor is bad to begin with? Is there a way to check it for continuity or any other way because the sensor is out and im looking right at it.
