They are different but they are similar in that they provide the computer with position of pistons. Did they provide you a code number like Pxxxx?

Both codes are for Engine Speed Sensor located just right of oil stick. Remove plug measure resistence between term 2-3 480-1000 ohms. Next measure between 1-2 & 1-3 should read 0 ohms. if any reading out replace sensor.
