Solved now, and passes smog, Ca. an amazing story and took more than one ECU to solve this. (and bad ECU Capacitors again)
Happy New Years Kick!!
I had posted on here about a sidekick that is now running flawlessly and a treat to drive because of your help. My girlfriend loves it so much she purchased an x-90 for a great price. The issue is that the sidekick you helped me with is a 95 and the x-90 is a 96 so a lot changed from the ignition system. The PO informed us of the bog and i was confident in my repair abilities due to it being the same 1.6L 16v motor. Well it threw the P0335 code for the Crank angle sensor and im stumped. I removed the sensor to find a huge carbon build up on it so i cleaned it and stuck it back in. shavings continue to clog the magnet but i have been cleaning it after a few minutes of running. The plug had a frayed connection so i rewired in some small spade connectors used for speakers so i didnt have to pay the $40 for a replacement connector. Its still throwing the p0335 code and im curious where on the ECM i might test continuity for this circuit? i would like to make sure the wiring is fine from the plug back to the ECM.
