Hall Effect Sensor: Adjustments
CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR
1. Position crankshaft timing sensor assembly. First slide electrical wires behind the inner timing belt cover. Then, hold the sensor assembly loosely
in place with the retaining bolts, but do not tighten bolts at this time.
2. Install the large electrical connector onto the crankshaft timing sensor assembly.
CAUTION: Ensure the four wires to the large electrical connector are installed in the proper locations or the sensor will not function properly.
3. Reconnect both the crankshaft timing sensor electrical connectors to the engine harness, then rotate the crankshaft such that the outer vane on the
crankshaft pulley hub assembly engages both sides of the crankshaft Hall Effect Sensor Positioner T89P-6316-A or equivalent, and tighten the
sensor assembly retaining bolts to 22-30 lb. in. (2.5-3.5 N-m).
4. Rotate the crankshaft such that the vane on the crankshaft pulley hub assembly is no longer engaged in the positioning tool.
5. Remove crankshaft Hall Effect Sensor Positioner.
6. Install the new plastic wire harness retainer to secure the crankshaft timing sensor harness to its mounting bracket. Trim off excess.
