Freakin 1361 code.
After some searching, i found the P1361 is the intermittent loss of signal from TDC Sensor. Problem is, this sensor was replaced ~a year ago, and i got signals 1361 AND 1362 before it was replaced (1362 is no signal whatsoever from TDC Sensor)
Now the 1361 is back, but not 1362. Couple questions.
1. Where is this sensor located, exactly, on the 2.3 VTEC?
2. What ELSE could this be other than the sensor itself being bad (short in its connectors, or possibly the dist/module/coil making this code throw out from a misfire?)
3. Any suggestions on fixing this without buying the 300$ sensor to just take stabs at it.

-Short in the CKP/TDC sensor
-Open in wires from ECM/PCM to sensor
-Short in wires from ECM/PCM to sensor
-Faulty ECM/PCM
3. Any suggestions on fixing this without buying the 300$ sensor to just take stabs at it.
2. On sensor side, Check continuity between each terminal to body ground. If found, replace sensor. Otherwise, goto next step.
3. Check for resistance between ECM/PCM terminals 8 &9, then 20 & 21. Both should be between 1850 to 2450 Ohm. If not, repair open. Otherwise, goto next step.
4. Check continuity between ECMPCM terminal 8 and/or 20 individually to body ground. If found, repair short. Otherwise, goto next step.
5. Substitute for known-good ECM/PCM.
