Circuit Description
The crankshaft engine position sensor provides engine speed and position information to the electronic control module (ECM). The sensor
must be powered up by (+) 5-VDC to operate. The sensor generates the signal by sensing the movement of target teeth machined into a tone wheel that is mounted to the crankshaft.
Component Location
The crankshaft engine position sensor is located on the side of the front cover on the intake side of the engine.
Refer to Procedure 100-002 (Engine Diagrams in Section E for component location.
