Various engine sensors and components have checking procedures,the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor is a thermistor that changes resistance with temperature, and a failure in the circuit can cause trouble codes. The resistance should be measured when cold and warm while ensuring reference voltage from PCM is around 5.0 volts for the verification. Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor monitors changes in intake manifold pressure then varies its voltage output accordingly. Look at the reference voltage and signal voltage with the ignition on and engine off, and observe voltage changes as the engine's vacuum changes. Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor acts as a thermistor where you can measure its resistance at different temperatures to make sure it changes as expected. Also, use a scan tool to monitor the IAT sensor for performance. The oxygen sensor in exhaust detects oxygen content which you can check its millivolt signal while warming up your engine. Check whether the oxygen sensor heater has correct voltage or not. Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) provides speed data to PCM which can be checked for reference voltage. Depending on the type of engine, Camshaft Sensor and Crankshaft Sensor should be checked for resistance and proper signal output. Finally, Knock Sensors detect engine knock which should be checked for reference voltage and resistance. If any component fails these checks, replacement may be necessary.

The camshaft position sensor operates similarly to the crankshaft position sensor, producing a signal pulse once every two crankshaft revolutions. It works alongside with the crankshaft position sensor to determine when fuel is injected in each cylinder. Only models made between 1996 and 2000 have a camshaft position sensor. The sensor is located within the distributor, so it is important to check at the connector terminals and wires going to the sensor for looseness or breaks in them. Before checking the operation of this device, it is important to test the voltage supply from the underhood electrical center. First, unplug the electrical connector, then connect your voltmeter's positive lead to pink wire terminal by connecting your negative lead to a good ground point on engine. When we turn on ignition key, reading must be approximately 12.0 volts. If this voltage is not right, wiring should be checked from sensor harness connector to underhood electrical center and repaired if necessary. To test if sensor is working properly reconnect the connector and back probe brown/white wire terminal of sensor connector using suitable probe. Attach positive lead of voltmeter to probe while negative lead will go to a good engine ground point. Set up meter for AC volts scale and start cranking engine over. The reading should indicate about 5.0 volts ac or slightly less than that figure indicated above in order for you get reliable data out of that setup. Replacing campshaft position sensors entails replacement of cap and rotor that holds battery cable together with disconnecting negative terminal cable from battery distributor case respectively as an initial step in the process; hence leading to removal of below parts- square notch which aligns reluctor (notched wheel) with respect to its relative position vis-à-vis oppositional plates inside its housing etc. Finally reinstalling everything just like before by applying thread locking compound around screw holes used during this operation.- But make sure that these screws are not over-tightened; only use enough force as required to secure them tightly in place.

The PCM gets a signal about the position of the crankshaft from the Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor, which is used to determine the spark sequence for each cylinder, ignite at the right time-ignition timing, calculate engine speed and detect misfires. The notches cause fluctuation in the magnetic field as they pass the sensor and hence result in an oscillating voltage. If there is no input from this component, your ignition system will be disabled. The terminals and wires should be checked for looseness or breaks to test the sensor and also verify the voltage supply at the underhood electrical center. Fix it if there is wrong voltage that arises from it. Connect again(to check sensor operation), back probe on the yellow wire terminal and then crank engine (it should read 5.0 volts AC). Replace if there's no signal available. Whenever you change this part perform a Crankshaft Position Sensor Variation Learning Procedure to avoid false diagnostic trouble codes. Disconnect battery cable; raise vehicle and support using jack stands; remove skid plate if necessary; disconnect electrical connector; remove mounting bolt; install new sensor.

For V6 models,Disconnect the CMP sensor connector. Remove the water pump, then the CMP sensor and its old o-ring. During installation, use a new lubricated o-ring and securely tighten the sensor bolt. For V8 models: Elevate the vehicle's front and secure on jackstands. Disconnect the CMP sensor harness and remove the sensor and o-ring. If the o-ring is damaged, replace it. Lubricate the o-ring with clean engine oil. Reinstall by reversing the removal steps, ensuring tight mounting bolts.

The oxygen sensor in the exhaust monitors oxygen content. To check it, you can check its millivolt signal while the engine warms up. It is also important to inspect the oxygen sensor heater and ensure it receives proper voltage.

For these engines, the steps to disconnect the CMP sensor include:Removing the cooling fan upper shroud.Raising the vehicle on jackstands.Disconnecting the lower electrical connector at the bottom of the timing chain cover.Removing the harness bracket bolts.Moving the harness/bracket until the upper electrical connector can be disconnected from the sensor.Removing the sensor mounting bolt, discarding the sensor seal, and installing a new seal onto the sensor.

To disconnect the CKP sensor on these engines, remove the starter motor and disconnect the CKP sensor electrical connector from the main engine harness. Remove the sensor mounting bolt and the sensor itself. Installation is the reverse of removal, ensuring that the CMP sensor mounting bolt is tightened securely.

Remove the starter motor and disconnect the electrical connector from the CKP sensor.

The camshaft sensor and crankshaft sensor, depending on the engine type, should be checked for resistance and proper signal output.
