My B18C GSR swap in my 91 hatch has a code 4 for the crank angle sensor. I know the crank angle sensor is in the dizzy as well. Has anybody had an experience with this because my car is running like complete crap as in not running smoothly while accelerating.

When i did my swap i pinned the crank angle sensor wires correctly, it was 2 of them. One was to be pinned at B12 and the other at B10. Both were pinned accordingly and i still have the code 4.

What should i do? Replace the distributor, is there a way to check and see at the connectors of the distributor if the crank angle sensor is bad or not?

 

measure the resistance between the 2 wires for it at the ecu. it should be between 300- 550 ohms. if not the copper coil part is prob bad. if it measures right than check the gear for it in the dist.

 

Check the pin connections at the ECU, if they are not tight you will get a code 4. Make sure the tabs on the female side of the pins is pushed in to make a tight connection.

 

I measured the resistance and it came back at 197 ohms of resistance between the two wires at the pins on the ecu which is under the specs i was given. Does this mean that i need a new dizzy or what?

 

its possible yea.. spec are 300- 550 ohm

 

Im putting on my buddies distributor tomorrow that i know is good. Its on a B16 as of now so tomorrow i should know whether or not its wiring related or not. I guess if it isnt the distributor then i will just overlay two wires from the distributor connector back to the pins at the ecu connectors and then ride.
