The blue wire is the signal wire.... read the voltage between blue and black.

i adjusted the sensor and all is good. hey what would cause a rocker arm to loosen or back off when the car has been sitting since september? car has 30,000miles on it by the way.

if it hasn't been started, its likely normal lifter bleed down, if it has been started(like, today), I would lean towards a collapsed lifter
