Crankshaft Position Sensor Circuit:
Connectors:
CIRCUIT OPERATION
- The crankshaft position sensor power is supplied from the MFI relay (terminal 4).
- Terminal 1 of the crankshaft position sensor is grounded with ECM (terminal 40)
- A 5-volt voltage is applied on the crankshaft position sensor output terminal (terminal 3) from the ECM (terminal 89)
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
- The crankshaft position sensor detects the crank angle (position) of each cylinder, and converts that data to pulse signals, which are then input to the ECM
- When the engine is running, the crankshaft position sensor outputs a pulse signal.
- The ECM
DTC SET CONDITIONS
