SENSOR TESTS
All sensor circuits are dependent on wiring and
connections, EMM supplied current (5 V), and
sensor resistance. The supplied current flows
through the wiring circuit and sensor before
returning to the EMM.
IMPORTANT:
Use Evinrude Diagnostics soft-
ware to monitor sensor circuit voltages or values.
Crankshaft Position Sensor (CPS)
Test
Use the Evinrude Diagnostics software CPS Sync
and engine RPM displays to confirm a valid CPS
signal while the outboard is cranking or running.
An RPM display higher than zero indicates a CPS
signal to the EMM.
Remove the electrical connector from its retainer
on the recoil starter housing. Disconnect the
crankshaft position sensor.
Use a digital multimeter to measure sensor resis-
tance between the yellow and white wires. The
complete circuit can be tested by measuring
between pins 4 and 12 of the EMM connector.
Sensor Resistance
560 ± 10% @ 77°F (25°C)
1. CPS Connector
The CPS is mounted to throttle body housing and
requires no adjustment. Air gap or clearance to
flywheel is fixed at approximately 0.054 in.
(1.37 mm). The acceptable clearance is 0.018 to
0.091 in. (0.45 to 2.38 mm).

Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) Test
Use Evinrude Diagnostics software to monitor
TPS voltage while the outboard is running. Volt-
age should change evenly as sensor lever is
moved.
Remove the electrical connector from the throttle
position sensor.
Use a digital multimeter to measure sensor resis-
tance.
Sensor Resistance between "A" and "B"
3000 to 7000 @ 77°F (25°C)
Sensor Resistance between "A" and "C"
4000 to 8000 @ 77°F (25°C)
