CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Camshaft position sensors (G1 and G2 signals) are mounted on the intake side of the cylinder head
and the crankshaft position sensor (NE signal) is mounted on the oil pump body. These sensors consist
of a timing rotor and pick up coil.
The G1, G2 timing rotors have 1 tooth each on their outer circumference and are mounted on the intake
camshaft.
When the intake camshaft rotates, the protrusion on the timing rotors and the air gap on the pick up
coil change, causing fluctions in the magnetic field and generating an electromotive force in the pick
up coil.
The NE timing rotor has 12 teeth and is mounted on the crankshaft. The NE signal sensor generates
12 NE signals per engine revolution. The ECM detects the standard crankshaft angle based on the G1,
G2 signals, and the actual crankshaft angle and the engine speed by the NE signals.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
(See page IG±30).
Check crankshaft position sensor, camshaft position sensors No.1, No.2.
For crankshaft position sensor, remove crankshaft posi-
tion sensor (See page IG±30).
For camshaft position sensor No.1, No.2, disconnect
camshaft position sensor No.1 No.2 connectors.
Measure resistance of crankshaft position sensor, cam-
shaft position sensor No.1 and No.2.

Check for open and short in harness and connector between engine control
module and each sensor (See page IN±30).
During cranking or idling, check waveforms between
terminals G1, G2 and G1 , G2 , NE and NE of
engine control module.
HINT: The correct waveforms are as shown.
Inspect sensor installation and teeth of timing rotor.
INSPECTION USING OSCILLOSCOPE
Replace crankshaft position sensor, camshaft
position sensor No.1, No.2.
Tighten the sensor. Replace timing rotor (Intake
camshaft, crankshaft timing pulley).
Check and replace engine control module.
Repair or replace harness or connector.
