Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor
Description
The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is located on the flywheel shell facing the gear teeth of the signal plate. It
detects the fluctuation of the engine revolution. The sensor consists of a permanent magnet and Induction coil.
Operation
When the engine is running, the high and low parts of the teeth cause the gap with the sensor to change. The
changing gap causes the magnetic field near the sensor to change. Due to the changing magnetic field, the voltage
from the sensor changes. The Engine Control Module (ECM) receives the voltage signal and detects the fluctuation
of the engine revolution.
Removal & Installation
1. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable.
2. Disconnect the CKP sensor electrical connector.
3. Remove the CKP sensor retaining bolt (1) and
remove the CKP sensor.
(Tighten: Crankshaft position sensor retaining bolt

Description
Vehicle wheel alignment is the positioning of all interrelated front and rear suspension angles. These angles affect the
handling and steering of the vehicle when it is in motion. Proper wheel alignment is essential for efficient steering,
good directional stability, and proper tire wear.
The method of checking a vehicle’s front and rear wheel alignment varies depending on the manufacturer and type
of equipment used. The manufacturer’s instructions should always be followed to ensure accuracy of the alignment.
On this vehicle, the suspension angles that can be adjusted are as follows:
Front Axle
•Camber
• Caster
• Toe-in
Rear Axle
• Camber
• Toe-in
Check the wheel alignment and make all wheel alignment adjustments with the vehicle standing at its proper curb
height specification. Curb height is the normal riding height of the vehicle. It is measured from a certain point on the
vehicle to the ground or a designated area while the vehicle is sitting on a flat, level surface.
Operation
Curb Height Measurement
The wheel alignment is to be checked and all alignment adjustments made with the vehicle at its required curb height
specification.
• Vehicle height is to be checked with the vehicle on a flat, level surface, preferably a vehicle alignment rack.
• The tires are to be inflated to the recommended pressure.
• All tires are to be the same size as standard equipment.
• Vehicle height is checked with the fuel tank full of fuel, and no passenger or luggage compartment load.
• Vehicle height is not adjustable.
• If the measurement is not within specifications, inspect the vehicle for bent or weak suspension components.
• Compare the parts tag on the suspect coil spring(s) to the parts book and the vehicle sales code, checking for
a match.
• Once removed from the vehicle, compare the coil spring height to a new or known good coil spring. The
heights should vary if the suspect spring is weak.
NOTE :
Prior to reading the curb height measurement, the front and rear of the vehicle must be jounced to settle the sus-
pension. Induce jounce by pushing down on the center of the bumper (fascia), using care not to damage the vehicle,
moving the vehicle up and down, gradually increasing the suspension travel with each stroke. Release the bumper at
the bottom of each stroke, repeating this action several times. Perform this to both front and rear suspensions an
equal number of times.
Pre-Wheel Alignment Inspection
Before any attempt is made to change or correct the wheel alignment, the following inspection and necessary cor-
rections must be made to the vehicle to ensure proper alignment. 1. Verify the fuel tank is full of fuel. If the fuel tank is not full, the reduction in weight will affect the curb height of the vehicle and the alignment specifications.
2. The passenger and luggage compartments of the vehicle should be free of any load that is not factory equip- ment.

Description
The power steering pump is a constant flow rate and displacement vane type pump. The pump reservoir supplies
fluid to the pump body. The pump is connected to the steering by the pressure and return hoses. The steering gear
used is a rack and pinion type gear.
Operation
Turning of the steering wheel is converted into linear travel through the meshing of the helical pinion teeth with the
rack teeth within the steering gear. The lateral travel pushes and pulls the tie rods to change the direction of the
vehicle’s front wheels.
Power assist steering is provided by a belt driven rotary type pump. It directs fluid through power steering fluid hoses
to the power steering gear where it is used to assist the driver’s turning effort.

Diagnostic Help
Diagnostic Help
1. The X-431 scan tool connects to the Data Link Connector (DLC) and communicates with the vehicle electronicmodules through the vehicle data circuits.
2. Confirm that the malfunction is current and carry-out the diagnostic tests and repair procedures.
3. If the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) cannot be deleted, it is a current fault.
4. Use a digital multimeter to perform voltage readings on electronic systems.
5. Refer to any Technical Bulletins that may apply to the failure.
6. Visually inspect the related electrical wiring harness.
7. Perform a voltage drop test on the related circuits between the suspected component and the ABS module.
8. Inspect and clean all ECM, ABS, engine, and chassis grounds that are related to the most current DTC.
9. If numerous trouble codes were set, use an electrical schematic and look for any common ground circuits or voltage supply circuits that may apply to the DTC.
10. For any wheel speed sensor DTCs, inspect for dirt/metal debris.
11. Use the scan tool to perform a System Test if one applies to the failed component.
Intermittent DTC Troubleshooting
If the failure is intermittent perform the following:
• Check for loose connectors.
• Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires.
• Monitor the scan tool data relative to this circuit.
• Wiggle the related electrical wiring harness and connectors while looking for an interrupted signal on the
affected circuit.
• If possible, try to duplicate the conditions under which the DTC set.
• Look for the data to change or for the DTC to reset during the wiggle test.
• Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals.
• Inspect the sensor and mounting area for any condition that would result in an incorrect signal, such as dam-
age, foreign material.
• A data recorder, and/or oscilloscope should be used to help diagnose intermittent conditions.
• Remove the ABS module from the troubled vehicle and install in a new vehicle and test. If the DTC cannot be
deleted, the ABS module is malfunctioning. If the DTC can be deleted, return the ABS module to the original
vehicle.
Ground Inspection
Ground connections are very important to the proper operation of electrical and electronic circuits. Ground connec-
tions are often exposed to moisture, dirt and other corrosive elements. The corrosion (rust) can become an unwanted
resistance. This added resistance can affect the way a circuit works.
Electronically controlled circuits are very sensitive to proper grounding. A loose or corroded ground can drastically
affect an electronically controlled circuit. A poor or corroded ground can affect the circuit. Perform the following when
inspecting a ground connection:
1. Remove the ground bolt or screw.
2. Inspect all mating surface for tarnish, dirt, rust, etc.
3. Clean as required to assure good contact.
4. Reinstall bolt or screw securely.
5. Inspect for add-onaccessories which may be interfering with the ground circuit.
6. If several wires are crimped into one ground eyelet terminal, check for proper crimps. Make sure all of the wires are clean, securely fastened and providing a good ground path. If multiple wires are crimped to one eyelet, make
sure no excess wire insulation has been crimped creating a bad ground.
