A good engine lab scope. I have cost me $5,000. interro unit. and I made 80,000 this year with it. If you live in the seattle area I can help.
$60 dollar an hour flat rate time.

Honestly, you do need a O'scope.....that IS the only way to really know if they are functioning correctly or not.

The Helms only outlines a procedure for checking their resistance. There are two parts to the sensor; the pickup (which you would measure) and the magnet (which you can't measure). Also to note, if the bushings were worn it would show up on the O'scope, but you would never measure it with an ohm meter.

So unless you've got a meter to do this simple check, replacement is your next option and at ~250 for the cage (because you can't replace individual sensors) its an expensive option.

well you could do a resistance test. However, resistance test are not accurate enough and can give you false results. A scope is more accurate. You can see what it is doing.
