What happens when the ref sensor is malfunctioning?

My Ref. sensor fails the multimeter test - the resistance test between the 2 wires that are supposed to have > 1 mega-ohm resistance has between 80 K-ohm and 900 K-ohm.

Would this make the injectors ALL run continuously?

My car wont start, and if I jump the DME relay the injectors all spray fuel continuously.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
Colin

no the car won't start if the sensor is bad

If your injectors are all spraying all the time when you jumper the dme relay, you have a bad dme (ecu, brain, computer).

That is correct. Cause when you ref sensors are not working properly, they don't let the fuel pump and ignition work. Sometimes , the sensor simply needs to be cleaned, from all the clutch material that sticks to it.

If the ref sensor is bad, the tach wouldn't show any rpm's when you crank the motor.
