Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor Short & Resistance Checks

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 34 other vehicles, including the 2001 Saturn SW2, 2001 Saturn SL2, 2001 Saturn SL1, 2001 Saturn SL, and 2001 Saturn SC2. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Set DVOM on 2000-ohm scale. Connect DVOM leads to CKP sensor connector located on side of engine block. Turn ignition off. Disconnect ignition control module harness connectors. Measure resistance between CKP sensor terminals at ignition control module connector.
  2. CKP sensor resistance should be 500-900 ohms. If resistance is not as specified, replace CKP sensor. If sensor resistance is within specification, go to next step.
  3. With CKP sensor installed in block, connect one DVOM lead to either sensor terminal at ignition control module. Touch other lead of DVOM to engine block. Continuity should not exist. If continuity exists, CKP sensor or circuit is shorted to ground and must be repaired or replaced.
