  2. Start the engine and check for signal waveform compared with reference waveform .

    There are 60 signals of CKPS (Including missing tooth) during the semi-cycle of CMPS #1.

    There are 3~5 signals of CKPS between the switching point of CMPS #1 and the missing tooth of CKPS.

  3. Is the signal waveform normal?

    YES 

    • Go to next Inspection procedure

    NO 

    • Repair or readjust as necessary, if air gap of the CKPS is exceeds specification[0.3~1.7 mm (0.012~0.067 in)]. If OK, check that the matching marks on the crankshaft and camshaft pulleys are correctly aligned. Repair or readjust as necessary and go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure
