Cam and Crank Sensor Resistors

Post by CMac89 »

I have a DIY threaded crank sensor and am using a factory Ford half-moon cam sensor. Both are all hall effect. I noticed that it's recommended I use a pullup resistor on the crank sensor (1K), but would I need one on the cam sensor to?

Where can I get the correct resistor(s)?

If it's our red threaded sensor, it always needs a pull up regardless of what it's sensing.
