CAS Question...Please help

[jay_rod24]

What causes a CAS to go bad? It worked fine before I rebuilt the motor, now nothing.

Do you have to remove the timing belt to install?

Can anyone find me installation instructions?

Well I'm pretty sure that on a 1g its on the head, and uses the camshafts to tell the position of the crank(assuming that your timing is correct). I would go verify this but I'm in West Palm beach

As for going bad, thats something that just happens. Usually the wires corrode or it fails somehow.

On your 2g, it is behind the intake cam gear.

I would suspect wiring connections before I would suspect the sensor itself. Just to make sure, test the resistance on it to make sure it is in working order before you go pullin everything off.

Sorry I didn't mention it was a 2g. How do you check resistance on the CAS? I did check for power which it does have with key on. Can you get a signal cranking? (The car won't start due to no fire on 1 and 4). I replaced the coil and power transistor but I couldn't check the ECM at the transistor pins as it has to be done with engine running. Thanks for the help.
