DESCRIPTION
The crankshaft position sensor system consists of a crankshaft position sensor plate (crankshaft pulley) and Magneto Resistance Element (MRE) type sensor. The crankshaft position sensor plate has 34 teeth at 10° intervals (2 teeth are missing for detecting top dead center), and is installed on the crankshaft. The crankshaft position sensor generates 34 signals per crankshaft revolution. The ECM uses the NE signal to detect the crankshaft position and engine speed.
DTC No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area | MIL | Memory | Note |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
P03352A | Crankshaft Position Sensor "A" Signal Stuck in Range | No crankshaft position sensor signal to ECM while cranking for 4.7 seconds (1 trip detection logic). |
| Comes on | DTC stored | SAE Code: P0335 |
P033531 | Crankshaft Position Sensor "A" No Signal | 3 seconds after the engine started, the engine stalls and the engine speed signal value decreases rapidly (1 trip detection logic). |
| Comes on | DTC stored | SAE Code: P0335 |
HINT:
When the engine is being stopped or started automatically by stop and start system control, the ECM does not monitor the crankshaft position sensor signal.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
A DTC will be stored if any of the following occur:

DATA LIST
HINT:
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.
(a) Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the GTS on.
(d) Start the engine.
(e) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Engine Speed

No special break-in is necessary, but a few precautions in the first 600 miles (1,000 km) may add to the performance, economy, and life of the vehicle.
Do not race the engine. Do not maintain one constant speed, either slow or fast, for a long period of time. Do not drive constantly at full-throttle or high engine rpm for extended periods of time. Avoid unnecessary hard stops. Avoid full-throttle starts.
