Montero 4WD V6-3.5L SOHC (1998)
Crankshaft Position Sensor: Oscilloscope Patterns and Waveforms
WAVE PATTERN INSPECTION USING AN ANALYZER
Measurement method:
(1) Disconnect the connector of the camshaft position sensor, and connect the special tool (test harness: MB991348) across the disconnected
connector parts. (Connect the tool to all terminals.)
(2) Connect the special patterns pickup of the analyzer to the terminal (2) of the camshaft position sensor connector.
(3) Disconnect the connector of the crankshaft position sensor, and connect the special tool (test harness: MD998478) across the disconnected
connector parts.
(4) Connect the special patterns pickup of the analyzer to the terminal (2) of the crankshaft position sensor connector.
Alternative method (when test harness is not available):
(1) Connect the analyzer special patterns pickup to ECM terminal (88) for the camshaft position sensor.
(2) Connect the analyzer special patterns pickup to ECM terminal (89) for the crankshaft position sensor.
