I used my LED test light on the tip of the sensor and nothing lights up.
Key on and trying to start the car, nothing..

So I removed the sensor.
There is 3 wires on the plug in.
I get 1 strong green light and the other 2 wires are very dim green light, which also indicates as being ground?

I tried this while key on and trying to start car.
Never got a red light..

Does this indicate a issue or just the wrong type of testing for this part?

I did not hook up my volt meter since I don't know where to touch the leads to..
