    This is for a friend's 94 850 sedan. It cranks but won't start. I
    jumpered the hazrad light fuse to that for the fuel pump. Heard clicks
    in the engine compartment thinking the relay clicked. But was not sure
    if the fuel pump actually turns in the turnk. The high tension coil
    produces sparks while cranking. Then someone on the Brickboard advised
    to test the cam sensor. I measured the three leads for resistance.
    Lead 1 and 2 has 1075 ohms. Leads 1, 3 and 2, 3 are open.

    What is the correct way of testing the cam sensor? He is reluctant to
    throw $140 at the car and miss. I feel the same.
