Disconnect the wire from the "negative" terminal of the battery

Disconnect the 3rd sensor wire block located behind the engine intake pipe

Checking and replacing the timing sensor

Remove bolt 2 and remove sensor 1.

Check the resistance of the sensor coil with an ohmmeter, it should be in the range of 850-900 ohms.

If the resistance value is not within the specified limits, replace the sensor.

Install the sensor in reverse order.

For normal operation of the sensor, the gap "a" between the sensor 1 and the synchronization disk 4 must be within 1.0-1.5 mm.

Timing Sensor Test

Turn off the ignition and disconnect the "negative" terminal of the battery.

Checking and replacing the ZMZ-406 synchronization sensorChecking and replacing the ZMZ-406 synchronization sensor

Use a thin screwdriver or an awl to remove the spring clip of the shoe.

Disconnect the sync sensor connector.

Connect an ohmmeter to the central and one side output.

We measure the resistance of the sensor winding, which should be in the range of 700-900 Ohm.

To further check the health of the sensor, remove it from the engine.

You can verify that the sensor is working by connecting a voltmeter to its outputs

We quickly bring the metal rod to the core of the sensor - if it is working, voltage surges are observed on the device.

We replace the defective sensor.

Removing the timing sensor

Checking and installing the ZMZ-406 engine phase sensorChecking and installing the phase sensor engine ZMZ-406

Using the “10” key, we unscrew the bolt securing the sensor to the engine block

Remove the sensor from the hole.

Bending the sensor wire clamps located on the intake manifold and cylinder block, pull the wire down together with the connector

Install the sensor in reverse order.

After installing the sensor, we check the gap between its rod and the teeth of the synchronization disk using a set of probes.

The gap should be within 1-1.5 mm.
