P1362
DTC P1361: TDC Sensor Intermittent Signal InterruptionDTC P1362: TDC Sensor No Signal
1. Reset the ECM/PCM.
2. Start the engine.
Is DTC P1361 and/or P1362 indicated?
YES - Go to step 3.
NO - Intermittent failure, system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose wires at the TDC sensor and at the ECM/PCM.
3. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Disconnect the TDC sensor 3P connector.
5. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
6. Measure voltage between the TDC sensor 3P connector terminal No.3 and body ground.
Is there battery voltage?
YES - Go to step 7.
NO - Repair open in the wire between PGM-FI main relay 1 and the TDC sensor.
7. Measure voltage between TDC sensor 3P connector terminal No.1 and body ground.
Is there about 5 V?
YES - Go to step 8.
NO - Go to step 10.
8. Measure voltage between TDC sensor 3P connector terminals No.2 and No.3.
Is there battery voltage?
YES - Go to step 9.
NO - Repair open in the wire between the TDC sensor and G101.
9. Substitute a known-good TDC sensor and recheck.
Is DTC P1361 and/or P1362 indicated?
YES - Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good ECM/PCM, then recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away with a known-good ECM/PCM, replace the original ECM/PCM.
NO - Replace the original TDC sensor.
10. Measure voltage between ECM/PCM connector terminal A26 and body ground.
Is there about 5 V?
YES - Repair open in the wire between the ECM/PCM (A26) and TDC sensor.
NO - Go to step 11.
11. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
12. Disconnect ECM/PCM connector A(31P).
13. Check for continuity between ECM/PCM connector terminal A26 and body ground.
Is there continuity?
YES - Repair short in the wire between the ECM/PCM (A26) and the TDC sensor.
NO - Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good ECM/PCM, then recheck, If the symptom/indication goes away with a known-good ECM/PCM, replace the original ECM/PCM.
