P0335
DTC P0335
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The crankshaft position (CKP) sensor signal indicates the crankshaft speed and position. The CKP sensor produces a DC voltage of varying amplitude and frequency. The frequency depends on the velocity of the crankshaft, and the DC output voltage depends on crankshaft position and battery voltage. The CKP sensor works in conjunction with a 58-tooth reluctor wheel attached to the crankshaft. The engine control module (ECM) determines the crankshaft position by the reference gap. The ECM can synchronize the ignition timing, fuel injector timing, and the spark knock control based on the CKP sensor and the camshaft position (CMP) sensor inputs. The CKP sensor is also used to detect a misfire. The CKP sensor circuits connect directly to the ECM. The circuits between the CKP sensor and the ECM consists of the following:
- A 12-volt reference
- A low reference
- A CKP sensor signal
If the ECM detects no CKP sensor signal, DTC P0335 sets.
DTC DESCRIPTOR
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC P0335 Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor Circuit
CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
- DTCs P0340, P0341, P0345, and P0346 are not set.
- The engine is cranking or running.
- DTC P0335 runs continuously once the above conditions are met.
CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
The ECM does not detect a signal from the CKP sensor for more than 1 second.
ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
- The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the second consecutive ignition cycle that the diagnostic runs and fails.
- The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The first time the diagnostic fails, the control module stores this information in the Failure Records. If the diagnostic reports a failure on the second consecutive ignition cycle, the control module records the operating conditions at the time of the failure. The control module writes the operating conditions to the Freeze Frame and updates the Failure Records.
CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC
- The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
- A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
- A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnostic.
- Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.
