- Repairing or replacing the crankshaft position sensor wiring harness.
What are the symptoms of a failing crankshaft position sensor?
Common signs of a faulty crankshaft position sensor include issues starting the vehicle, intermittent stalling, and the Check Engine Light coming on.
How do you relearn a crankshaft position sensor?
to perform the relearn, proceed as follows:
- Set the parking brake and block the drive wheels.
- Start the engine and make sure that the engine coolant temperature is at least 158 degrees F.
- Turn the engine off for at least 10 seconds.
- Select the crankshaft position variation learn procedure (CASE Learn)on your scanner.
What causes code P0336?
Code P0336 may be set when the PCM receives a signal from the crankshaft position sensor that deviates from specification. This engine code is set when the PCM receives a signal from the crankshaft position sensor that deviates from specification.
Can I drive with a bad crankshaft sensor?
Once the position sensor becomes compromised or if you have symptoms of a problematic crankshaft that you can’t ignore, do not drive your vehicle. If the problems are more severe, driving can cause substantial engine damage that could cost you a lot more to repair.
Where is the crankshaft position sensor?
The sensor is at either the front or the back of the crankshaft, so it’s usually located either on the transmission bellhousing or behind the crankshaft pulley. There should be a small air gap, usually about a millimeter or two, between the sensor and the reluctor.
