|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| P03351F | Crankshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit Intermittent | 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 is 1000 rpm or higher. (b) Starter signal is off. (c) 3 seconds or more have elapsed since the starter signal switched from on to off. |

Reference: Inspection using an oscilloscope.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
A DTC will be stored if any of the following occurs:
The crankshaft position sensor signal (NE signal) is not received by the ECM when the engine is being cranked.
The crankshaft position sensor signal (NE signal) is not received by the ECM when the engine is running.
The engine stalls and the engine speed signal value decreases rapidly (under normal conditions the engine speed will decrease gradually).
MONITOR STRATEGY
| Required Sensors/Components (Main) | Crankshaft position sensor |
| Required Sensors/Components (Related) | Camshaft position sensor |
| Frequency of Operation | Continuous |
CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Start the engine.
Idle the engine for 20 seconds or more.
Run the engine at an engine speed of 1000 rpm for 5 seconds or more.
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.
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.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.
Input the DTC: P03351F, P03352A or P033531.
Check the DTC judgment result.
| GTS Display | Description |
|---|---|
| NORMAL |
|
| ABNORMAL |
|
| INCOMPLETE |
|
Tech Tips
If the judgment result is NORMAL, the system is normal.
If the judgment result is ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
If the judgment result is INCOMPLETE, perform steps through again.
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Tech Tips
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 GTS. To perform the check, follow the procedures below:
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Engine Speed.
Start the engine.
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 GTS. 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
READ VALUE USING GTS (ENGINE SPEED)
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Engine Speed.
| Tester Display |
|---|
| Engine Speed |
Start the engine.
Read the values displayed on the GTS while the engine is running.
| Standard |
|---|
| Correct values are displayed. |
Tech Tips
To check the engine speed change, display the graph on the GTS.
If the engine does not start, check the engine speed while cranking.
If the engine speed indicated on the GTS remains at zero (0), there may be an open or short in the crankshaft position sensor circuit.
