The crankshaft position system variation compensating
values are stored in the PCM non-volatile memory after a learn procedure has
been performed. If the actual crankshaft position system variation is not
within the crankshaft position system variation compensating values stored
in the PCM, DTC P0300 may set. Refer to Diagnostic Aids for DTC P0300.
The Crankshaft Position System Variation Learn Procedure should be
performed if any of the following conditions are true:
| • | The PCM has been replaced. |
| • | The engine has been replaced. |
| • | The crankshaft has been replaced. |
| • | The crankshaft harmonic balancer has been replaced. |
| • | The crankshaft position sensor has been replaced. |
Important: : The scan tool crankshaft position system variation learn function will
be inhibited if engine coolant temperature is less than 70°C (158°F).
Allow the engine to warm to at least 70°C (158°F) before attempting
the crankshaft position system variation learn procedure.
The scan tool crankshaft position system variation learn function will
be inhibited if any Powertrain DTCs other than DTC P1336 are set before
or during the crankshaft position system variation learn procedure. Diagnose
and repair any DTCs if set. Refer to applicable DTCs.
The crankshaft position system variation learn function will be inhibited
if the PCM detects a malfunction involving the camshaft position signal circuit,
the 3X reference circuit, or the 24X reference circuit. If a malfunction
has been indicated, refer to the following list to diagnoses the system or
sensor.
The scan tool crankshaft position system variation learn function will
not be enabled until engine coolant temperature reaches 70° C (158° F)
Selecting the crankshaft position system variation learn procedure
on the scan tool will command the PCM to enable CKP system variation learn
fuel cutoff and allow the crankshaft position system variation compensating
values to be stored in the PCM. The PCM must detect an engine speed of 5150
RPM (CKP system variation learn fuel cutoff) during the crankshaft position
system variation learn procedure to store the crankshaft position system
variation compensating values and complete the procedure.
Important: : Set the vehicle parking brake and block the drive wheels when performing
the Crankshaft Position System Variation Learning Procedure in order to prevent
personal injury. Release the throttle when the engine reaches the second
fuel cut off. Leaving the throttle open during the fuel cut off will allow
the engine to decel at an even rate. Once the learn procedure is completed,
the PCM will return the engine control to the operator and the engine will
respond to the throttle position.
- Set the parking brake.
- Block the drive wheels.
- Ensure the hood is closed.
- Start the engine and allow engine coolant temperature to reach
at least 70°C (158°F).
- Turn off the ignition switch.
- Select and enable the crankshaft position variation learn procedure
with the scan tool.
- Start the vehicle.
- Apply and hold the service brake pedal firmly.
- Ensure the transaxle is in park.
- Increase accelerator pedal position and hold until the fuel cutoff
is reached at 5150 RPM. Release the accelerator pedal after the second
fuel cutoff has been reached.
- The crankshaft position system variation compensating values
are learned when the RPM decreases back to idle. If the procedure terminates.
- Observe DTC status for DTC P1336.
- If the scan tool indicates that DTC P1336 ran and passed,
the crankshaft position system variation learn procedure is complete. If the
scan tool indicates DTC P1336 failed or not run, determine if other
DTCs have set. If DTCs other than P1336 are not set, repeat the crankshaft
position system variation learn procedure as necessary.
