I need to know the colors of the wires for the crank angle sensors as you look at the front of the motor- top and bottom. (they should be White & Red and Green & Black according to the manual- just doesn't say which way round they are other than "G" and "NE")



I have tried with mirrors and torches but just can't see the wires unless I disassemble half the motor!



Help!

Actually need to know which pair of wires go to the upper sensor as you look at it- orientation of the wires on the sensor ain't so important as I can work it out from the wiring diagram...



One of the sensors has red& white, the other has green& black.

Red/white is the grey connector which goes on the lower one. Green/black is the whtie and goes on top.

You are THE MAN!



Thanks so much- wasn't looking forward to taking all that crap off the front of the motor.



Oh well, back to the Microtech piggy-backing!
