| 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 crankshaft position sensor plate and pickup coil. The sensor plate has 34 teeth and is installed on the crankshaft. The pickup coil is made of wound copper wire, an iron core and magnet. The sensor plate rotates, and a pulse signal is created as each tooth passes by the pickup coil. The pickup coil generates 34 signals for each revolution. Based on these signals, the ECM calculates the crankshaft position and engine speed. Using these calculations, the common rail injection system is controlled.
| DTC No. | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| P0335 | When either condition below is met:
|
|
| P0339 | No crankshaft position sensor signal is input to ECM for 0.05 seconds or more, and conditions (a), (b) and (c) are met: (1 trip detection logic) (a) Engine speed is at 1,000 rpm or more (b) STA signal is OFF (c) 3 seconds or more have elapsed after STA signal is switched from ON to OFF |

Reference: Inspection using the oscilloscope.
While idling, the correct waveform is shown in the diagram.
Tech Tips
G stands for the camshaft position sensor signal, and NE stands for the crankshaft position sensor signal.

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 P0335 is output again, check the following items related to the camshaft position sensor.
Installation condition of the camshaft position sensor
Installation condition of the camshaft
Connection of the camshaft position sensor connector
Tech Tips
If no trouble is found in the diagnostic troubleshooting procedure of DTC P0335, troubleshoot the engine mechanical system.
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
INSPECT CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR
Disconnect the C4 crankshaft position sensor connector.
Measure the resistance of the crankshaft position sensor.
| Standard resistance | |||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Tech Tips
In the table above, the terms "cold" and "hot" refer to the temperature of the coils in the sensors. "Cold" means approximately -10 to 50°C (14 to 122°F). "Hot" means approximately 50 to 100°C (122 to 212°F).
