The cps is tested with an ohmeter. Generally the sensor will read between 300-350 ohms. Also, check to see that the pick-up magnet is centered in the sensor housing. It should be positioned perpendicular to the flywheel teeth, with an air gap of 0.020-0.060 in. An adjustment to the high side, say 0.040-0.060 in. seems to work best. Also just a note, if the cps has failed, or is badly misadjusted, the engine will not run.
The Crankshaft Position Sensor senses it's position from a toothed timing ring behind the Crankshaft pulley. The CKP is above and to the left of the crankshaft pulley.
in the distributor in the rear of the engine. sometimes known as a hall sensor
The Crankshaft sensor and the Cam sensor monitor the position and or the speed of rotation of the crankshaft. Together they send signals to the ECM. The ECM uses that information along with info from other sensors to send spark and fuel to the cylinders at the correct time. Some engines only have only a crank sensor to perform that job. Other engines that have both crank and cam sensors that split the duties.
Crankshaft position sensor circuit malfunction.
Yes it can. The crankshaft position sensor is one of the major sensors for spark timing.
To test a crankshaft position sensor on a 1996 Jimmy Blazer, use a CKP sensor to test for voltage output. Compare the results to manufacturer specifications.
