Diagnostic Test

1. Ignition on, engine not running.
2. With a scan tool, clear DTCs, PCM battery disconnect to reset the PCM.
3. Start the engine.
4. If the MIL has not yet illuminated, test drive the vehicle to try to get the code to reset.

   Does the code reset while cranking or during the test drive?

   Yes 

   • Go to step  2

   No 

   • Refer to the INTERMITTENT CONDITION Diagnostic Procedure.
   • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure

1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Visually inspect the CKP wire harness. Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires.
3. Visually inspect the CKP wire harness connectors. Look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded terminals.
4. Make sure the Crankshaft Position Sensor is properly installed and the mounting bolt(s) are torqued to the proper specification.

   Were any of the above conditions present?

   Yes 

   • Repair as necessary
   • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure

   No 

   • Go to step  3

1. Remove the Crankshaft Position Sensor.
2. Inspect the Tone Wheel/Flex Plate slots for damage, foreign material, or excessive movement.

   Were any problems found?

   Yes 

   • Repair or replace the Tone Wheel/Flex Plate as necessary.
   • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure

   No 

   • Go to step  4

If there are no possible causes remaining, view repair.

Repair 

• Replace the Crankshaft Position Sensor.
• Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure
