DTC P0335-2A: Crankshaft Position Sensor "A" Signal Stuck in Range; DTC P0335-31: Crankshaft Position Sensor "A" No Signal [10/2022 - 11/2023]: Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. READ VALUE USING GTS (ENGINE SPEED) 
    1. Put the engine in Inspection Mode (Maintenance Mode).

      Powertrain > Hybrid Control > Utility 

      Tester Display
      Inspection Mode
    2. Start the engine.
    3. Read the values displayed on the GTS while the engine is running.

      Powertrain > Engine > Data List 

      Tester Display
      Engine Speed

      Standard

      Correct values are displayed.

      HINT: 

      • To check the engine speed change, display the graph on the GTS.
      • If the engine does not start, check the engine speed while cranking.
      • If the engine speed indicated on the GTS remains at zero (0), there may be an open or short in the crankshaft position sensor circuit.

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    OK 

    CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS 

    Refer to CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS [12/2019 - ]

    Result: 

    NG 

    See step  2

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR

    *a Front view of wire harness connector
    (to Crankshaft Position Sensor)

    HINT: 

    Make sure that the connector is properly connected. If it is not, securely connect it and check for DTCs again.

    1. Disconnect the crankshaft position sensor connector.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    3. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      n5-3 (VCNE) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 4.5 to 5.5 V
      n5-1 (NE+) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 3.0 to 5.0 V
    4. Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
    5. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      n5-3 (VCNE) - n5-1 (NE+) Ignition switch off 1.425 to 1.575 kΩ
      n5-2 (NE-) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    See step  5

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  3

  3. CHECK SENSOR INSTALLATION AND CONDUCT VISUAL INSPECTION (CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR)

    *a Clearance
    1. Visually check the crankshaft position sensor for damage.
    2. Check the crankshaft position sensor installation condition.

      OK

      The crankshaft position sensor does not have any damage and is installed properly.

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    SECURELY REINSTALL CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR 

    Refer to INSTALLATION [12/2019 - 11/2023]

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  4

  4. INSPECT No. 1 CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR PLATE (TEETH OF CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR PLATE) 
    1. Inspect the teeth of the No. 1 crankshaft position sensor plate.

      OK

      No. 1 crankshaft position sensor plate does not have any cracks or deformation.

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    OK 

    REPLACE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR 

    Refer to REMOVAL [10/2021 - 11/2023]

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPLACE NO. 1 CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR PLATE 

    Refer to PROCEDURE - Step 4

  5. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR - ECM) 
    1. Disconnect the crankshaft position sensor connector.
    2. Disconnect the ECM connector.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      n5-3 (VCNE) - C55-116 (VCNE) Always Below 1 Ω
      n5-2 (NE-) - C55-115 (NE-) Always Below 1 Ω
      n5-1 (NE+) - C55-93 (NE+) Always Below 1 Ω
      n5-3 (VCNE) or C55-116 (VCNE) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      n5-2 (NE-) or C55-115 (NE-) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      n5-1 (NE+) or C55-93 (NE+) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    OK 

    REPLACE ECM
