NOTE: "Cold" and "Hot" in these sentences express the temperature of the sensor itself. "Cold" is from 10 °C (14 °F) to 50 °C (122 °F) and "Hot" is from 50 °C (122 °F) to 100 °C (212 °F).
INSPECT CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR RESISTANCE
Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between terminals.
Resistance
Cold 1,630 - 2,740 Ohms
Hot 2,065 - 3,225 Ohms
If the resistance is not as specified, replace the crankshaft position sensor.

- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
