S.O.S. 92 svx, code 13, replaced all sensors$$$, still code 13?
Hi, my name is Rick,
My 92 svx died on way to work while driving aprox 40-50 mph, chugging stall plugged one blue wire into terminal #2 and turned key and read code 13. I replaced (3) both sensors under alternator and the one between the valvecover and battery. what else would be giving me the code 13? Are there more than three cam/crank sensors? i giveup trying to fix it myself. I will answer to anything and will post when problem fixed and how fixed for others to learn. Thanks Rick

First question have you reset the ECU by unplugging the battery for a few hours :P do it over night and then see if the codes come back

Here is what i have done:
remove neg terminal to battery for longer than 24hrs cleaned MAF intake sensor removed fuel line from filter to confirm fuel checked wires from sensors to connectors on opposite ends. Do i need to remove both terminals from bat to clear ecu? How do I check the ecu? I learn fast, someone please? I love driving this car more than i love my wife!! I just want to know what my chances are that its eletrical and not a stuck valve....

Well, does it still crank over fine?
If it cranks over faster than it used to then perhaps your timing belt is toast.

Could be the timing belt? Pull off one of the side covers to check it out. If the belt's not turning the cams, it can give a cam sensor code.

you asked if its cranking faster than normal? first crank is normal then it cranks abnormaly fast.
Tomorrow i will pull the timing belt cover and check.

If i go back to work and check the timing belt and its fine, how do i check or test the crank/cam sensors? (they were about $500.00 for the three!!)
What is the ohm resistance for the crank/cam sensors?
