ECD SYSTEM (for DPF), Diagnostic DTC:P0016, P0340, P0342, P0343

DTC Code DTC Name
P0016 Crankshaft Position - Camshaft Position Correlation (Bank 1 Sensor A)
P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction
P0342 Camshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit Low Input (Bank 1 or Single Sensor)
P0343 Camshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit High Input (Bank 1 or Single Sensor)

DESCRIPTION

The camshaft position sensor (G signal) consists of a magnet and MRE (Magnetoresistive Element).

The G signal plate (timing sprocket) has one tooth on its outer circumference and is installed on the camshaft. When the camshaft rotates, the protrusion on the signal plate and the air gap on the MRE change, causing fluctuations in the magnetic field that generate a voltage in the MRE.

The NE signal plate has 34 teeth and is mounted on the crankshaft angle sensor plate. The NE signal sensor generates 34 signals for every revolution. The ECM detects the camshaft angle based on the G signal, and detects the crankshaft angle based on the NE signal.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration Click here and initialization Click here.

Tech Tips


  • After performing the inspection procedure for the crankshaft position sensor, if DTC P0016 and/ or P0340 is output again, check the following items related to the camshaft position sensor.


    • Installation condition of the crankshaft position sensor

    • No. 1 crankshaft position sensor plate

    • Connection of the crankshaft position sensor connector


  • Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR - ECM)


    1. Disconnect the camshaft position sensor connector.

    2. Disconnect the ECM connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      C70-3 (VC) - C69-78 (VCG) Always Below 1 Ω
      C70-1 (G2R) - C69-80 (G2+) Always Below 1 Ω
      C70-2 (G-R) - C69-79 (G2-) Always Below 1 Ω
      C70-3 (VC) or C69-78 (VCG) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      C70-1 (G2R) or C69-80 (G2+) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      C70-2 (G-R) or C69-79 (G2-) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    4. Reconnect the camshaft position sensor connector.

    5. Reconnect the ECM connector.
