Camshaft Position Sensor Resistance: Turbo

Disconnect electrical connector from camshaft position sensors. Camshaft position sensors are located on intake manifold side of cylinder head. See Fig 2. Using ohmmeter, check resistance between electrical terminals on each camshaft position sensor.
Ensure camshaft position sensor resistance is within specification. See CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR RESISTANCE table. Replace camshaft position sensor if resistance is not within specification. See REMOVE/INSTALL/OVERHAUL article. Reinstall electrical connector on camshaft position sensor.
