The ECM detects that the engine has started, but has received less than 2, or more than 8, camshaft position sensor pulses during the first engine revolution.
The ECM detects that the engine has started and is running, but receives less than 398, or more than 402 camshaft position pulses per 100 engine cycles in 800 of 1,000 engine cycles.
