Visual Inspection

1.  Remove the CKP sensor. (See CRANKSHAFT POSITION (CKP) SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [ZJ, ZY].)

2.  Verify that there are no metal shavings on the sensor.

•  If there is a malfunction, replace the CKP sensor. (See CRANKSHAFT POSITION (CKP) SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [ZJ, ZY].)

3.  Install the CKP sensor. (See CRANKSHAFT POSITION (CKP) SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [ZJ, ZY].)

•  If not within the specification, inspect the plate projections for cracks or bending.

―  If not within the specification, replace the crankshaft pully. (See FRONT OIL SEAL REPLACEMENT [ZJ, ZY].)

Voltage Inspection

Caution

•  Water penetrating the connector will cause sensor malfunction. To prevent this, be careful not to damage the wiring harnesses or the waterproof connector so as to cause water penetration.

1.  Idle the engine.

2.  Measure the crankshaft position signal and verify that rectangular waves are produced. (See PCM INSPECTION [ZJ, ZY].)

3.  If not as specified, replace the CKP sensor. (See CRANKSHAFT POSITION (CKP) SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [ZJ, ZY].)
