DTC 0905





COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
The crankshaft position sensor (POS) is located on the oil pan facing the gear teeth (cogs) of the signal plate (flywheel). It detects the crankshaft position signal (1° signal).
The sensor consists of a permanent magnet, core and coil.
When engine is running, the gap between the sensor and the gear teeth (cogs) will periodically change. Permeability near the sensor also changes.
Due to the permeability change, the magnetic flux near the core is changed. Therefore, the voltage signal generated in the coil is changed.
The ECM receives the voltage signal and detects the crankshaft position signal (1° signal).






CONSULT REFERENCE VALUE IN DATA MONITOR MODE
Specification data are reference values.






ECM TERMINALS AND REFERENCE VALUE
Specification data are reference values, and are measured between each terminal and (25) (ECCS ground).






ON BOARD DIAGNOSIS LOGIC


DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

NOTE:
- If "DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE" has been previously conducted, always turn ignition switch "OFF" and wait at least 5 seconds before conducting the next test.
- Before performing the following procedure, confirm that battery voltage is more than 10.5V.



Without Scan Tools
1) Start engine and run it at least 1 minute and 10 seconds at idle speed.
2) Turn ignition switch "OFF", wait at least 5 seconds and then turn "ON".
3) Perform "Diagnostic Test Mode II (Self-diagnostic results)" with ECM.

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE


COMPONENT INSPECTION
Crankshaft position sensor (POS)












1. Disconnect crankshaft position sensor (POS) harness connector.
2. Loosen the fixing bolt of the sensor.
3. Remove the sensor.
4. Visually check the sensor for chipping.
5. Reconnect crankshaft position sensor (POS) harness connector.
6. Turn ignition switch "ON".
7. Check voltage between terminals (2) and (3) when bringing a screwdriver into contact with, and quickly pulling away from the sensor core.
There should be a steady 5V as the screwdriver is drawn away slowly.
If NG, replace crankshaft position sensor (POS).
