Examination
Attention! On cars of 1980-87, the Hall sensor is used as the source signal generator. The sensor is checked in the car service.

1. Disconnect the connector from the distributor and measure the resistance between the terminals of the induction sensor.
2. Compare the measurement results with the values given in subsection 3.4.1. If the measured resistance differs from the standard values, replace the sensor.
Checking the gap between the sensor and the rotor
3. Disconnect the battery from ground.
4. Remove the distributor (see subsection 3.4.6).
5. Using a brass feeler gauge, measure the gap between the rotor and the induction sensor protrusion (see Fig. Checking the gap between the rotor and the induction sensor protrusion (1980-87.), Checking the gap in the induction sensor on cars of 1988-92 and Checking the gap in the induction sensor on cars since 1993). If the gap differs from the standard, then on cars of 1980-87 loosen the screws and set the gap, on cars since 1988 replace the distributor, since the gap is not subject to adjustment (an increase in the gap against the norm is usually caused by wear of the distributor bushing).
Replacement
1. Disconnect the battery from ground.
2. Remove the distributor (see subsection 3.4.6).
3. Loosen the screws securing the induction sensor (indicated by arrows).
4. Remove the induction sensor.
5. Installation is performed in reverse order. Adjust the gap in the sensor.
