Is there continuity?

YES -Go to step 26.

NO -Repair open in the wire between the ECM/PCM (A7) and the CKP sensor, then go to step 19.

17. Turn the ignition switch OFF.

18. Replace the CKP sensor (see CMP SENSOR B REPLACEMENT ).

19. Reconnect all connectors.

20. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).

21. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.

22. Clear the CKP pattern with the HDS.

23. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure (see ECM/PCM IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE .

24. Do the CKP pattern learn procedure (see CRANK (CKP) PATTERN CLEAR/CRANK (CKP)

PATTERN LEARN ).

25. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS.

Is DTC P0335 indicated?

YES -Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the CKP sensor and the ECM/PCM, then go to
step 1.

NO -Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to the
INDICATED DTCS TROUBLESHOOTING.

26. Reconnect all connectors.

27. Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software (see UPDATING THE ECM/PCM ), or

substitute a known-good ECM/PCM (see SUBSTITUTING THE ECM/PCM ).

28. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS.

Is DTC P0335 indicated?

YES -Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the CKP sensor and the ECM/PCM. If the
ECM/PCM was updated, substitute a known-good ECM/PCM (see SUBSTITUTING THE
ECM/PCM ), then recheck. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, go to step 1.

NO -If the ECM/PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the ECM/PCM was substituted,
replace the original ECM/PCM (see ECM/PCM REPLACEMENT ). If any other Temporary DTCs or
DTCs are indicated, go to the INDICATED DTCS TROUBLESHOOTING.

DTC P0339: CKP SENSOR CIRCUIT INTERMITTENT INTERRUPTION

1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).

2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.

3. Start the engine, and let it idle 10 seconds.

4. Check the CKP NOISE in the DATA LIST with the HDS.

Are 0 counts indicated?

YES -Go to step 7.

NO -Go to step 5.

5. Test-drive the vehicle for several minutes in the range of these recorded freeze data parameters:



ENGINE SPEED



VSS

6. Check the CKP NOISE count in the DATA LIST with the HDS.

Are 0 counts indicated?

YES -Go to step 7.

NO -Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at
the CKP sensor and the ECM/PCM.

7. Check for poor or loose connections and terminals at these locations:



CKP sensor



ECM/PCM



Engine ground



Body ground

Are the connections and terminals OK?

NOTE:

Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and
review the general troubleshooting information (see GENERAL
TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION ).

YES -Go to step 8.

NO -Repair the connectors or terminals, then go to step 11.

8. Remove the cam chain case (see CAM CHAIN REMOVAL ), and check for damage on the CKP sensor

pulse plate.

Is the pulse plate damaged?

YES -Replace the CKP sensor pulse plate (see CKP PULSE PLATE REPLACEMENT ), then go to
step 11.

NO -Go to step 9.

9. Turn the ignition switch OFF.

10. Replace the CKP sensor (see CMP SENSOR B REPLACEMENT ).

11. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).

12. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.

13. Clear the CKP pattern with the HDS.

14. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure (see ECM/PCM IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE ).

15. Do the CKP pattern learn procedure (see CRANK (CKP) PATTERN CLEAR/CRANK (CKP)

PATTERN LEARN ).

16. Start the engine, and let it idle 10 seconds.

17. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS.

Is DTC P0339 indicated?

YES -Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the CKP sensor and the ECM/PCM, then go to
step 1.

NO -Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to the
INDICATED DTCS TROUBLESHOOTING.

DTC P0365: CMP SENSOR B NO SIGNAL

1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).

2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.

3. Start the engine.

4. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS.

NOTE:

Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and
review the general troubleshooting information (see GENERAL
TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION ).
