I have a 2001 Civic coupe EX and I have a check engine light that indicates a CKP sensor. Does anybody know the resistance of the 3 pin sensor and what the values should read? I think the Mitchell manuals at the library would have it, but can't go till tomorrow or the next day. Please help!!
Thanks in advance,

The pictures here and in the next post tell you how to troubleshoot the CKP sensor. The necessary multimeter measurements, however, are for voltage or continuity rather than resistance.

no need to chk resistance,, if you do these tests it will tell you what's wrong

 

Thanks for those pictures! Ends up my voltages were fine and the sensor is bad. Will pick up the new one today. Thanks a bunch!

Just curious. If the voltages were fine, then how did you know that the sensor was bad?

 

Looks like the link isn't working. Can you repost these?

 

A 2001 model is considerably different from your 2000. (2001 and later have no distributor) Don't use 2001 instructions.

 

Ok. I just downloaded the manual so I have the values now, I hope.
