Montero LS 4WD V6-2972cc 3.0L SOHC 12 Valve (1994)
Camshaft Position Sensor: Testing and Inspection
SETTING UP TO MEASURE WAVE PATTERNS
Measurement Method Using Special Tool Harness
1. Disconnect the distributor connector and connect the special tool (test harness: MB991348) in between. (All terminals should be connected).
2. Connect the analyzer special patterns pickup to terminal (1) of the distributor connector. (When inspecting the camshaft position sensor signal
wave pattern.)
3. Connect the analyzer special patterns pickup to terminal (2) of the distributor connector. (When inspecting the crankshaft position sensor signal
wave pattern.)
Alternative method (when test harness is not available)
1. Connect the analyzer special patterns pickup to ECM terminal (68) for the camshaft position sensor.
2. Connect the analyzer special patterns pickup to ECM terminal (69) for the crankshaft position sensor.
