Hi,
I am trying to set the cam sensor. I just dropped in a used engine I picked up several years ago. I took the cam sensor out to prime the engine.
Now I want to set the cam sensor. I have an analog multimeter.
I have power to the alternator, interior lights, dash. I do not have the trans installed. I have the fuel pump, computer, coil pack all the connectors to the engine hooked up. Except the maf connections and ac stuff.
Here is how I am trying to test.
I rotated the engine to the correct timing mark with the tape.
I hook the neg of the multi-meter to a ground on the alternator bracket. I test it by touching the pos of the meter to the alt. pos and see the needle sweep up.
I take an alligator clip on the center pin (b) of the cap harness and clip the other end to the multi-meter pos. Set the key to the on position then try and turn the sensor.
I turn the sensor back and forth and the needle never moves.
So what am i missing.
Thanks,
Rob
