CRANKSHAFT POSITION (CKP) SENSOR INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-G (WITHOUT CYLINDER DEACTIVATION (E))]

Home  id0140u1800500

Caution

•  If foreign matter such as metal shaving adhere to the CKP sensor, it can cause abnormal output from the sensor because of flux turbulence, which can negatively affect the engine control. Verify that there is no foreign matter on the CKP sensor when replacing.

•  Do not assemble the CKP sensor or change the installation position using any method other than the following. Otherwise, it could negatively affect engine control, such as the ignition timing and fuel injection.

•  If the wiring harnesses or waterproof connectors are damaged, water penetrating the connector will cause a sensor malfunction. To prevent this, be careful not to damage wiring harnesses or waterproof connectors.

Visual Inspection

1.  Disconnect the negative battery terminal. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION [(E)].)

2.  Remove the CKP sensor. (See CRANKSHAFT POSITION (CKP) SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-G (WITHOUT CYLINDER DEACTIVATION (E))].)

3.  Verify that there are no metal shavings on the sensor.

•  If there is a malfunction, remove any metal shavings that are adhering.

Voltage Inspection

1.  Idle the engine.

2.  Measure the output voltage wave pattern between CKP sensor terminals C and B using an oscilloscope.

•  If not as specified, replace the CKP sensor. (See CRANKSHAFT POSITION (CKP) SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-G (WITHOUT CYLINDER DEACTIVATION (E))].)
