Measure the voltage on the orange wire on either sensor. There must be 8 volts. If you find less than that, unplug the crank sensor and measure it again. If it's back up to 8 volts, the crank sensor is shorted and must be replaced. The air gap is critical. It will come with a paper spacer installed or that you must stick on. Push the sensor as far in as it will go, then tighten it down. The paper will shear off and the gap will be correct.
