Magnetic Pick-Up Test

  1. With ignition off, check resistance between pins No. 3 and 7. See Figure and Figure. Reading should be 400-800 ohms. Check resistance between pin No. 8 and engine ground. Reading should be zero ohms.
  2. Check resistance between pin No. 3 and engine ground, and between pin No. 7 and engine ground. Both these readings should be more than 70, 000 ohms. If any of these readings is incorrect, replace defective magnetic pick-up (stator) assembly.
