Unhappy Pressure/Boost sensor?

Would anyone know how to test the little black "pressure" sensor on the passenger shock tower... I asked a question about my secondary injectors earlier... The did not seem to work... I have since connected them directly to the battery and they are fine... I just need to know how to check the pressure sensor or what my next step would be... Pleease... Any help would be greatly appreciated...

I KNOW it's in the FSM. Check the FAQ at the top. But You're gonna have to get a vacuum gauge, and check the resistance values (IIRC) after applying "x" amount of vacuum to the sensor.

Go out to your car and turn the key to ON. Now get a meter and see what the output voltage is from the sensor and write that down. Now start the engine and idle it fully hot at approx 750 rpm and write that down. Submit the figures on this thread and we'll see what we can do with just those figures. We ought to be able to have clue from those figures if the sensor is half *** good/bad.

Measure the output voltage AT the ECU with the ECU's plugs connected .
