Also does it matter which wire connects to which side of the resistor? Or my resistor must be bad ones then? What tool do you need to test the resistor. Sorry guys I am a newbie when it comes to these resistors.
If you have the sensor and the resistor connected at the same time, the car is seeing ~2.4 ohms, instead of the required 4.7.

Resistors are not polarized.

Resistors seldom fail - unless you run too much current through them and that will usually cause discoloration from the heat.

Ohms are measured with an ohmmeter. You can find VOMs (volt-ohm-milliammeter combo, AKA multimeter) at most auto parts stores.
