Diagnostic Aids
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Chevrolet Corvette. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Remove any debris from the PCM connector surfaces before servicing the PCM. Inspect the PCM connector gaskets when diagnosing or replacing the PCM. Ensure that the gaskets are installed correctly. The gaskets prevent contaminant intrusion into the PCM.
For any test that requires probing the PCM or the component harness connectors, use the Connector Test Adapter Kit. Using this kit prevents any damage to the harness connector terminals.
The following conditions may cause this DTC to set:
- Poor connection or poor terminal tension at the sensor.
- Crankshaft reluctor wheel damage or improper installation.
- The CKP sensor coming in contact with the reluctor wheel.
Excess crankshaft end play causes the CKP sensor reluctor wheel to move out of alignment with the CKP sensor. This could result in any one of the following:
- A no-start.
- A start and stall.
- Erratic performance.
For an intermittent, see INTERMITTENT CONDITIONS under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM.
