1. Turn ignition off. Disconnect ECM connector B136 (30-pin connector). Using an ohmmeter, measure resistance between ground and ECM connector B136 (30-pin connector) terminal No. 4. See Fig. 9. If resistance is more than 700 k/ohms, go to step 3. If resistance is less than 700 k/ohms, go to next step.
2. Measure resistance between ECM connector B136 (30-pin connector) terminal No. 4 and ground. If resistance is less than 400 k/ohms, go to step 5. If resistance is more than 400 k/ohms, go to step 6.
3. Turn ignition off. Reconnect ECM connector. Disconnect electrical connector from KS. Using an ohmmeter, check resistance between ground and KS harness terminal No. 2. See Fig. 18. If resistance is more than 700 k/ohms, go to next step. If resistance is less than 700 k/ohms, check for open circuit in harness and bad contact in connectors between KS and ECM. See appropriate wiring diagram in WIRING DIAGRAMS article.
4. Check KS installation bolt for tightness. If bolt is tight, replace KS. If bolt is not tight, tighten bolt and retest.
5. Disconnect KS connector. Measure resistance between KS harness terminal No. 2 and ground. If resistance is 400 k/ohms or less, replace KS sensor. If resistance is more than 400 k/ohms, check for short to ground in wiring between KS and ECM connector. Ensure shield is also in tact for this circuit.
6. Reconnect ECM and KS connectors. Turn ignition on. Using voltmeter connected to ground, backprobe ECM connector B136 (30-pin connector) terminal No. 4. If voltage is 2 volts or less, repair poor contact in ECM connector. If voltage is more than 2 volts, circuit is normal. Check for poor contact at KS or ECM connectors.
