DTC 0802 Crankshaft Position Sensor

Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKPS) (OBD) (DTC: 0802)
The crankshaft position sensor (OBD) is located on the transmission housing facing the gear teeth (cogs) of the drive plate (flywheel). It detects the fluctuation of the engine revolution. The sensor consists of a permanent magnet, core and coil. When the engine is running, the high and low parts of the teeth cause the gap with the sensor to change.
The changing gap causes the magnetic field near the sensor to change.
Due to the changing magnetic field, the voltage from the sensor changes.
The ECM receives the voltage signal and detects the fluctuation of the engine revolution.
This sensor is not used to control the engine system. It is used only for the on board diagnosis of misfire.




DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
Before performing the following procedure, confirm that battery voltage is more than 10.5V.

With Consult
1) Turn ignition switch "ON" and select "DATA MONITOR" mode with CONSULT.
2) Start engine and run it for at least 15 seconds at idle speed.

OR

With GST
1) Start engine and run it for at least 15 seconds at idle speed.
2) Select "MODE 3" with GST.

OR

Without Scan Tools
1) Start engine and run it for at least 15 seconds at idle speed.
2) Turn ignition switch "OFF", wait at least 5 seconds and then turn "ON".
3) Perform "Diagnostic Test Mode II" (Self-diagnostic results) with ECM.

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

COMPONENT INSPECTION
Crankshaft position sensor (OBD)
1. Disconnect crankshaft position sensor (OBD) harness connector.
2. Loosen the fixing bolt of the sensor.
3. Remove the sensor.




4. Visually check the sensor for chipping.




5. Check resistance as shown in the figure.

Resistance: Approximately 166 - 204 Ohms [at 2O°C (68°F)]
