P0336



DTC P0336

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The crankshaft position (CKP) sensor signal indicates the crankshaft speed and position. The CKP sensor circuits are connected directly to the powertrain control module (PCM) and consists of the following circuits:
- The 12-volt reference circuit
- The low reference circuit
- The CKP sensor signal circuit

If the PCM detects that the CKP sensor signal is inconsistent, DTC P0336 sets.

DTC DESCRIPTOR
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC P0336 Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor Performance

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
- The engine is cranking or running.
- DTC P0336 runs continuously once the above conditions are met.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
The PCM detects that the CKP sensor signal is inconsistent for 3 seconds.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
- The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the second consecutive ignition cycle that the diagnostic runs and fails.
- The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The first time the diagnostic fails, the control module stores this information in the Failure Records. If the diagnostic reports a failure on the second consecutive ignition cycle, the control module records the operating conditions at the time of the failure. The control module writes the operating conditions to the Freeze Frame and updates the Failure Records.

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC
- The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
- A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
- A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnostic.
- Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.
