Crankshaft Position Variation Learn Procedure: 2.2L

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Install scan tool.
  2. Monitor the powertrain control module for DTCs with scan tool. If other DTCs are set, except DTC P1336, refer to DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DEFINITIONS in SELF-DIAGNOSTICS - 2.2L VUE article for the applicable DTC that set.
  3. Select the Crankshaft Position Variation Learn Procedure on scan tool.
  4. The scan tool instructs you to perform the following:
    • Accelerate to Wide Open Throttle (WOT).
    • Release throttle when fuel cutoff occurs.
    • Observe fuel cutoff specifications for applicable engine.
    • Engine should not accelerate beyond calibrated RPM value.
    • Release throttle immediately if value is exceeded.
    • Block drive wheels.
    • Set parking brake.
    • DO NOT apply brake pedal.
    • Cycle ignition from off to on.
    • Apply and hold brake pedal.
    • Start and idle engine.
    • Turn A/C off.
    • Vehicle must remain in Park or Neutral.
    • The scan tool monitors certain component signals to determine if all the conditions are met to continue with the procedure. The scan tool only displays the condition that inhibits the procedure. The scan tool monitors the following components:
      1. Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensors activity - If there is a CKP sensor condition, refer to the applicable DTC that set. See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DEFINITIONS in SELF-DIAGNOSTICS - 2.2L VUE article.
      2. Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor signal activity - If there is a CMP signal condition, refer to the applicable DTC that set. See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DEFINITIONS in SELF-DIAGNOSTICS - 2.2L VUE article.
      3. Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) - If the engine coolant temperature is not warm enough, operate engine at idle until engine coolant temperature reaches the correct temperature.
    5. NOTE: While the learn procedure is in progress, release the throttle immediately when engine starts to decelerate. The engine control is returned to the operator and engine responds to throttle position after the learn procedure is complete.
  5. Enable the crankshaft position system variation learn procedure with the scan tool and perform the following:
    • Accelerate to WOT.
    • Release when fuel cutoff occurs.
    • Test in progress.
  6. The scan tool displays Learn Status: Learned this ignition. If scan tool indicates that DTC P1336 ran and passed, the CKP variation learn procedure is complete. If the scan tool indicates DTC P1336 failed or did not run, refer DTC P1336: CRANKSHAFT POSITION SYSTEM VARIATION NOT LEARNED in SELF-DIAGNOSTICS - 2.2L VUE article.
  7. If any other DTCs set, refer to DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DEFINITIONS in SELF-DIAGNOSTICS - 2.2L VUE article for the applicable DTC that set.
  8. Turn ignition off for 30 seconds after the learn procedure is completed successfully.
  9. The CKP system variation learn procedure is also required when the following service procedures have been performed, regardless of whether DTC P1336 is set:
    • Engine replacement.
    • ECM replacement.
    • Harmonic balancer replacement.
    • Crankshaft replacement.
    • CKP sensor replacement.
    • Any engine repairs which disturb the crankshaft to CKP sensor relationship.
