Sensor questions V70-XC70

Morning all,

This post is related to my other hard start V70 1998....but thought it wise to start fresh.

The previous owner said the car did not have any problems until a trip over the Rocky Mountains....so that would make me think altitude sensor?

No CEL is present. But what are the correct resistance reading on the 3 terminals on the Alt sensor mounted under the front frame. I am just about at sea level (Cali central valley)

....and what is this sensor right behind the passenger side headlight, right above the AC stuff. It is a single bolted sensor with a slight angle to it?
What is the resistance reading for that?

I thought my 95 855T would have these sensor to swap but no.

Thanks
Rob

    This is really a bump.

    And this is what the MAP sensor looks like:

      I am sorry...sometimes I feel like I gotta start fresh.

      So what is the sensor at the front bottom frame?

      Do you have resistance ratings for these items?

      Bad Rob

        I was lead to believe the small rectangular box on the front of the subframe is part of the SRS, collision warning system. Please do not hit it with a hammer or turn on the ignition with the box unplugged.
