P0336

DTC P0336 Crankshaft Position Sensor Circuit Range/Performance

DESCRIPTION

The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor consists of a magnet and coil located next to the flywheel. The sensing wheel teeth are used by the CKP sensor to generate a signal. The voltage signal from CKP sensor allows the Engine Control Module (ECM) to determine engine RPM and crankshaft position.

FAILURE CONDITIONS (FOR P0336)
The ECM will set P0336 and the MIL will turn on immediately if the CKP sensor signal does not indicate the two missing teeth in exactly the same position on the tone wheel during two successive engine revolutions. This check is made for 5 seconds when the engine is running above 2000 RPM. This code indicates a problem with the crankshaft being read by the CKP sensor or ECM.
