Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B23 camshaft position sensor.
  2. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF. It may take 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down, test for less than 5 Ω on the low reference circuit, terminal B, and ground.
    • If greater than the specified value, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
  3. Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the 5 V reference circuit terminal A and ground.
    • If less than the specified range, test the 5 V reference circuit for an open/high resistance or short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the 5 V reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
  4. Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the signal circuit terminal C and ground.
    • If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance or short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
  5. Ignition OFF, connect a 3A fused jumper wire to the signal circuit terminal C.
  6. Ignition ON, momentarily touch the other end of the 3 A fused jumper wire to the battery negative post. The scan tool CMP Active counter should increment.
    • If the parameter does not increment, replace the K20 ECM.
  7. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the B23 camshaft position sensor.
