Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Pontiac Grand Prix, 2003 Chevrolet Malibu, and 2003 Buick Century. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The Crankshaft Position (CKP) system variation learn feature is used to calculate reference period errors caused by slight tolerance variations in the crankshaft and the CKP sensors. The calculated error allows the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) to accurately compensate for reference period variations. This enhances the ability of the PCM to detect misfire events over a wider range of engine speed and load.

The PCM stores the CKP system variation values after a learn procedure has been performed. If the CKP system variation values are not stored in the PCM memory, DTC P1336 sets.
