SFI SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P0335, P0339

DTC Code DTC Name
P0335 Crankshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit
P0339 Crankshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit Intermittent

DESCRIPTION

The crankshaft position sensor system consists of a crank angle sensor plate (crankshaft) and a pickup coil. The crank angle sensor plate has 34 teeth at 10° intervals (2 teeth are missing for detecting top dead center), and is installed on the crankshaft.

The crankshaft position sensor generates 34 signals per crankshaft revolution. Based on these signals, the ECM calculates the crankshaft position and engine speed. Using these calculations, the fuel injection and ignition timing are controlled.

DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area

  • No crankshaft position sensor signal to ECM while cranking.

  • No crankshaft position sensor signal to ECM while engine running.

  • Missing crankshaft position sensor signal despite VVT sensor signal inputs normal after engine cranked.


  • Open or short in crankshaft position sensor circuit

  • Crankshaft position sensor

  • Crankshaft (crank angle sensor plate)

  • ECM

P0339

Under conditions (a), (b) and (c), no crankshaft position sensor signal to ECM for 0.05 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic):

(a) Engine speed 1000 rpm or higher.

(b) Starter signal off.

(c) 3 seconds or more have elapsed since starter signal switched from on to off.


  • Open or short in crankshaft position sensor circuit

  • Crankshaft position sensor

  • Crankshaft (crank angle sensor plate)

  • ECM


MONITOR DESCRIPTION

If there is no signal from the crankshaft position sensor despite the crankshaft rotating, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction of the sensor.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN


  1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

  2. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.

  3. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).

  4. Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.

  5. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.

  6. Start the engine.

  7. Idle the engine for 20 seconds or more [A].

  8. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes [B].

  9. Read the pending DTCs.

    Tech Tips


    • If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.

    • If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.

  10. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.

  11. Input the DTC: P0335 or P0339.

  12. Check the DTC judgment result.

    Techstream Display Description
    NORMAL
    • DTC judgment completed

    • System normal

    ABNORMAL
    • DTC judgment completed

    • System abnormal

    INCOMPLETE
    • DTC judgment not completed

    • Perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions

    N/A
    • Unable to perform DTC judgment

    • Number of DTCs which do not fulfill DTC preconditions has reached ECU memory limit

    Tech Tips


    • If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.

    • If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.

    • If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE or N/A, perform steps [A] and [B] again.

  13. If no pending DTC is output, perform a universal trip and check for permanent DTCs Click here.

    Tech Tips


    • If a permanent DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.

    • If no permanent DTC is output, the system is normal.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Tech Tips


  • After performing the inspection procedure for the crankshaft position sensor, if DTC P0335 is output again, check the following items related to the VVT sensor.


    • Installation condition of the VVT sensor

    • Installation condition of the camshaft

    • Connection of the VVT sensor connector

  • If no problem is found through this diagnostic troubleshooting procedure, troubleshoot the engine mechanical system.

  • The engine speed can be checked by using the Techstream. To perform the 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 / Data List / Primary / Engine Speed.


    • The engine speed may be indicated as zero despite the engine running normally. This is caused by a lack of NE signals from the crankshaft position sensor. Alternatively, the engine speed may be indicated as lower than the actual engine speed if the crankshaft position sensor output voltage is insufficient.

  • Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, 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)


    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the Techstream on.

    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Primary / Engine Speed.

    5. Start the engine.

    6. Read the values displayed on the Techstream while the engine is running.

      Standard
      Correct values are displayed.

      Tech Tips


      • 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 sensor circuit.
