DESCRIPTION
The crankshaft position sensor is located on the oil pan facing the gear teeth (cogs) of the signal plate (flywheel). It detects the crankshaft position signal (1° signal).
The sensor consists of a permanent magnet, core and coil. When engine is running, the gap between the sensor and the gear teeth (cogs) will periodically change. Permeability near the sensor also changes.
Due to the permeability change, the magnetic flux near the core is changed. Therefore, the voltage signal generated in the coil is changed.
The ECM receives the voltage signal and detects the crankshaft position signal (1° signal).




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 70 seconds at idle speed.

OR

With GST
1) Start engine and run it for at least 70 seconds at idle speed.
2) Select "MODE 3" with GST.

OR

Without Scan Tools
1) Start engine and run it for at least 70 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.




WIRING DIAGRAM







DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

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




4. Visually check the sensor for chipping.
5. Reconnect crankshaft position sensor (POS) harness connector.
6. Turn ignition switch "ON".







7. Check voltage between terminals (2) and (3) when bringing a screwdriver into contact with, and quickly pulling away from the sensor core.

There should be a steady 5V as the screwdriver is drawn away slowly.
If NG, replace crankshaft position sensor (POS).
