Crankshaft position sensor testing
Rather then putting this in my soon to be coming Diagnostic Challenge thread, please help me out with understanding this finding.
This is my old CPS ( my current one showed similar readings whilst testing it yesterday ) which I exchanged years ago when having intermittent stalling. After changing it for a new one, it seemed to have cured it untill recently.
Testing for the CPS (1997+) is done by checking for continuity between pin B and C. It should say 'open'....which it does in one setup (actually implying it wasn't faulty in the first place). The other setup, where the probes are reversed, it shows a reading. I'm not sure about what this means. Switching it to display Ohms gave a reading of 54 on the 200M Ohm scale on the old ,suspected faulty, CPS....but none on my current.
