one complete revolution. You should perform this test while the vehicle is on the
ground and not on the stand. As the vehicle suspension takes up the weight of
the vehicle, the driveshaft and CV joint hub move. The sensor must be properly
aligned with the magnet in this normal condition.

The dot should appear and then disappear each time the magnet passes the sen-
sor. If the dot does not flash as described, consult the Troubleshooting section.
