Help Identifying these two plugs....

[nanito88]

I know one goes to the crankshaft sensor and the other one goes to the camshaft sensor. How do I tell which connector (coming directly from the harness) is which? is there a way of checking with a multimeter at the ecu for resistance?

see those ridges on the top of each male connector? Those ridges make it so you cant plug the wrong sensor into the wrong plug. For what its worth, the one that has the single ridge on it is for the crankshaft position sensor and the plug with two ridges is for the camshaft sensor.

You can go wrong with those, they both have 2 ridges on one side and one ridge on the other side.
Just give it a try.

True that, just try it. Worst case scenario, it doesn't start.
