3UR-FE ENGINE CONTROL: SFI SYSTEM: P0335: Crankshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit

DTC P0335 - Crankshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit

DTC P0337 - Crankshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit Low Input

DTC P0338 - Crankshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit High Input

DTC P0339 - Crankshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit Intermittent

DESCRIPTION

The crankshaft position (CKP) sensor system consists of a crankshaft angle sensor plate and Magnetic Resistance Element (MRE) type sensor. The crankshaft angle sensor plate has 34 teeth at 10° intervals (2 teeth are missing for detecting top dead center), and is installed to the rear end of the crankshaft. The crankshaft position sensor outputs 34 rotation signals per engine revolution. The ECM uses the G2 signal to distinguish between the cylinders, and uses the NE signal to detect the crankshaft position and engine rpm.





- Reference: Inspection using an oscilloscope.





Standard:





HINT: G2 stands for the camshaft position sensor signal, and NE stands for the crankshaft position sensor signal.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

If there is no signal from the crankshaft position sensor despite the engine revolving, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction of the sensor.
When the sensor output voltage remains at less than 0.3 V, or more than 4.7 V for more than 4 seconds, the ECM stores a DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:
- If no problem is found by this diagnostic troubleshooting procedure, check for problems by referring to the engine mechanical section.
- The engine speed can be checked by using the Techstream. To check, follow the procedures below:
1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
2. Start the engine.
3. Turn the Techstream on.
4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / All Data / Engine Speed.

- Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE

1. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (ENGINE SPEED)
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / All Data / Engine Speed.
(e) Start the engine.
(f) Read the values displayed on the Techstream while the engine is running.
Standard:
Correct values are displayed.

HINT:
- To check the engine speed change, display the graph on the Techstream.
- If the engine does not start, check the engine speed while cranking.
- If the engine speed indicated on the Techstream remains zero (0), there may be an open or short in the Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor circuit.

NG -- INSPECT CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR (SENSOR POWER SOURCE)
OK -- CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
2. INSPECT CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR (SENSOR POWER SOURCE)





(a) Disconnect the crankshaft position sensor connector.
(b) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Voltage:





NG -- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR - ECM)
OK -- Continue to next step.

3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR - ECM)





(a) Disconnect the crankshaft position sensor connector.
(b) Disconnect the ECM connector.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:





NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.

4. CHECK SENSOR INSTALLATION (CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR)





(a) Check the crankshaft position sensor installation.
OK:
Sensor is installed correctly.

NG -- SECURELY REINSTALL SENSOR
OK -- Continue to next step.

5. INSPECT CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR PLATE (TEETH OF SENSOR PLATE)
(a) Check the teeth of the sensor plate.
OK:
Sensor plate does not have any cracks or deformation.

NG -- REPLACE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR PLATE
OK -- Continue to next step.

6. REPLACE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR
(a) Replace the crankshaft position sensor Removal.
NEXT -- Continue to next step.

7. CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS (DTC P0335, P0337, P0338 AND/OR P0339)
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Clear DTCs DTC Check / Clear.
(e) Start the engine.
(f) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
(g) Read DTCs.

Result





HINT: If the engine does not start, replace the ECM.

B -- REPLACE ECM
A -- END
8. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR - ECM)





(a) Disconnect the crankshaft position sensor connector.
(b) Disconnect the ECM connector.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:





NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- REPLACE ECM
