No, that one is for diagnostics, specifically setting the injection timing with the dynamic tool. The one for the idle speed/tach is on the rear of the engine reading off the flywheel. Peter ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives

Ok, thanks. Is the Hall effect sensor for the OM603 located on the front of the engine with the magnet on crankshaft damper as on the OM617/616? The connector that attaches the tail from the sensor to the harness. It's exposed and corrodes, resulting in poor transmission of the signal

Are you talking about the engine to body ground strap, or a different connector? The connector behind the engine is usually the one that gets corroded. Mine comes and goes, along with the idle speed control, and I suppose I should get in there and clean that connector sometime. Peter
