Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the crankshaft position sensor.
  2. Ignition OFF, test for less than 1 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  3. NOTE: 5K Ω or greater in the 5 V reference circuit will cause this DTC to set.
  4. Ignition ON, engine OFF, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the 5 V reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If less than the specified range, test the 5 V reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the 5 V reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  5. Ignition ON, engine OFF, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the signal circuit terminal 3 and ground.
    • If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  6. Ignition OFF, connect a fused jumper wire to signal circuit terminal 3.
  7. Ignition ON, momentarily touch the other end of the fused jumper wire to the battery negative post repeatedly. The Crankshaft Position Active Counter should increment.
    • If the Crankshaft Position Active Counter increments, test or replace the crankshaft position sensor.
    • If the Crankshaft Position Active Counter does not increment, replace the ECM.
  8. Ignition OFF, inspect the crankshaft position sensor for correct installation. Remove the crankshaft position sensor from the engine. Inspect the sensor and the O-ring for damage.
    • If the sensor is loose, inspect the sensor and the O-ring for damage. Replace as necessary.
  9. Inspect the engine for the following conditions:
    • Engine oil for debris
    • Crankshaft reluctor wheel for damage
    • Timing chain, tensioner, and sprockets for wear or damage
    • If debris is found in the engine oil, inspect the internal engine components to determine the cause. Repair or replace any worn or damaged components.
  10. If all circuits and components test normal, test or replace the crankshaft position sensor.
