The crankshaft position (CKP) sensor circuits consist of an engine control module (ECM) supplied 5-volt reference circuit, low reference circuit and an output signal circuit. The CKP sensor is an internally magnetic biased digital output integrated circuit sensing device. The sensor detects magnetic flux changes of the teeth and slots of a 58-tooth reluctor wheel on the crankshaft. Each tooth on the reluctor wheel is spaced at 60-tooth spacing, with 2 missing teeth for the reference gap. The CKP sensor produces an ON/OFF DC voltage of varying frequency, with 58 output pulses per crankshaft revolution. The frequency of the CKP sensor output depends on the velocity of the crankshaft. The CKP sensor sends a digital signal, which represents an image of the crankshaft reluctor wheel, to the ECM as each tooth on the wheel rotates past the CKP sensor. The ECM uses each CKP signal pulse to determine crankshaft speed and decodes the crankshaft reluctor wheel reference gap to identify crankshaft position. This information is then used to determine the optimum ignition and injection points of the engine. The ECM also uses CKP sensor output information to determine the camshaft relative position to the crankshaft, to control camshaft phasing, and to detect cylinder misfire.
• | DTC P0340, P0341, P0641 or P0651 is not set. |
• | The engine is cranking or running. |
• | The DTC runs continuously when the above conditions are met. |
Important: The ECM detects engine movement by sensing the airflow through the mass air flow (MAF) sensor is more than 3 g/s, or by sensing CMP sensor pulses.
• | The ECM detects that the starter is commanded on and the engine has been cranking for more than 4 seconds without a CKP sensor pulse. |
OR |
• | The ECM detects that the engine has been running, but has not received a CKP sensor pulse for 2 of 10 engine revolutions. |
• | The ECM detects that the engine is running, but receives less than 51 or more than 65 CKP sensor pulses each engine revolution for 8 of 10 engine revolutions. |
OR |
• | The ECM detects that the engine is running, but more than 19 resyncs occur within 25 seconds. |
OR |
• | The ECM detects that the engine has been running, but the crankshaft does not sync for 0.4 second. |
• | DTC P0335 and P0336 are Type B DTCs |
• | The CMP actuator is commanded to the home or parked position. |
• | The ignition system defaults to a limp home mode. The CMP sensor is used to determine engine position. |
DTC P0335 and P0336 are Type B DTCs
Electronic Ignition (EI) System Description
• | Close routing of secondary ignition wires |
• | Close routing of aftermarket electrical equipment |
• | Close to solenoids, motors, and relays |
⇒ | Correct any wire harness routing or component placement conditions, if it is determined to be a possible source of electrical interference. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified value, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM. |
⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for an open/high resistance or short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM. |
⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the affected signal circuit for an open/high resistance or short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the affected signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM. |
⇒ | If the CKP Active Counter parameter does not increment, replace the ECM. |
⇒ | If the sensor is loose, inspect the sensor and the O-ring for damage, replace as necessary. |
• | Engine oil for debris |
• | Crankshaft reluctor wheel for damage |
• | The timing chain, tensioner, and sprockets for wear or damage |
⇒ | If debris is found in the engine oil, inspect the internal engine components to determine the cause. Repair or replace any worn or damaged components. Refer to Camshaft Timing Chain and Sprocket Cleaning and Inspection and Crankshaft and Bearing Cleaning and Inspection . |
⇒ | If the sensor is loose, incorrectly installed, or damaged; repair or replace the CKP sensor. |
⇒ | If the parameter does not increment, replace the CMP sensor . |
