CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR
(CPS)
Operation Overview
The crankshaft position sensor is essential to engine operation,
constantly monitoring the rotational speed (RPM) and position
of the crankshaft.

ELECTRONIC FUEL INJECTION
A ferromagnetic 60-tooth ring gear with two consecutive teeth
missing is mounted on the flywheel. The inductive speed sensor
is mounted 1.0  0.26 mm (0.059  0.010 in.) away from the ring
gear. During rotation, an AC pulse is created within the sensor
for each passing tooth. The ECU calculates engine speed from
the time interval between the consecutive pulses.
The two-tooth gap creates an "interrupt" input signal,
corresponding to specific crankshaft position. This signal serves
as a reference for the control of ignition timing by the ECU.
Synchronization of the CPS and crankshaft position takes place
during the first two revolutions each time the engine is started.
This sensor must be properly connected at all times. If the sensor
fails or becomes disconnected for any reason, the engine will
stop running.

CPS Test

The CPS is a sealed, non-serviceable assembly. If fault code
diagnosis indicates a problem within this sensor, test as follows:
1.
Disconnect CPS (3-wire) harness connector on the left-
hand side of the vehicle located below the transmission.
2.
Connect an ohmmeter between the pin terminals leading
from the Yellow and White wires. A resistance value of
560  10% at room temperature should be obtained.
