This may fall on deaf ears and it might just be a shit idea but.... browsing through the wiki i can only find information about how to test the cps and tps. I thought it might be a good idea to have a section for the various engine sensors and electrical components as these questions come up quite a lot.

It would be useful to know what readings should be expected when testing with a multimeter, at both the ecu plug, and pins on the sensor/component itself. The ones i couldnt find are the icv, afm, plug resistance, coil resistance, tps at ecu.

It would be great to have a page where all mutimeter tests and readings could be explained in detail.
