Re: Problem with 2008 gear tooth sensor

Tim, did you get the Honeywell sensors mounted? Did you post pix somewhere?

Two of the Honeywell sensors, 1GT101DC, arrived today and after setting them up in my test fixture, I don't see any output. I am looking for pulses similar to the KOP sensors for 2008 and 2007.

I am using 12 for power and connect the output to my Tek 465 scope. My fixture uses a servo with a big metal gear rotating about 60 RPM. I can feel the tug of the magnet. I see no pulses.

They seem pretty simple - is there some trick? Are the pulses narrower than the KOP sensors? I tried various horiz sweep rates but nothing.
Thanks, Larry
