Re: where is the crank position sensor???
For '92-'95 Civics the CKP is found in the distributor. OP has a '94.
The '96-'00 Civics have the CKF right at the crank, behind the timing cover.

Multimeter will work. Basically just see if power is reaching the sensors.
GhostAccord explains it well:
Remeber to SEARCH! I found this info right here on H-T on the first try!

GhostAccord explains it well:
I would assume that the CKP sensor in your D16Z6 Civic is probably in the distributor. Not the same as the OBD2 Accord posted above. If the CKP in the distributor goes bad that means you will need to replace the distributor.
There is a test procedure
• Disconnect the 8pin connector from the distributor
• Measure the resistance between sensor terminals B & F (ECU terminals B15 BLU/GRN wire & B16 BLU/YEL wire)
• If the resistance is not between 350Ω & 700Ω replace the distributor.
• If the resistance is between 350Ω & 700Ω - Check for continuity to body ground on both B & F terminals.
• Does continuity exist
Yes - replace distributor
No
• Test the ECU

Re: where is the crank position sensor???
Hi I've Got a 94' Accord ex and the MIL is saying that it is the Crankshaft position Sensor, is there any parts place that sells JUST the Sensor its self....I've tried local parts stores but no luck....Does anyone have a picture of the sensors location IN the Distributor????????????

Seriously, stop bumping every thread you open, it's pointless and annoying.

So long as you're using an OBD1 ECU it wont look for the CKF sensor behind the timing cover.

Re: where is the crank position sensor???
my ecu is p28, that means that the wiring if I serve and are supposed to turn on the deep ..? Certainly not understand, if the cable CKP this band next to the distribution must be connected to the output of the distributor?

But again, don't worry about the CKF sensor, the ECU wont look for it.
