Powertrain DTC Charts and Descriptions 4-57

Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Charts and Descriptions

P0332 - Knock Sensor 2 Circuit Low (Bank 2)

Description: This DTC sets when the voltage goes outside a calibrated level. The knock sensor 2 (KS2) detects vibrations

upon increase and decrease in engine RPM. The KS2 generates a voltage based on this vibration.

Possible Causes: • KS2+ circuit open

• KS2- circuit open

• KS2+ circuit short to ground

• KS2- circuit short to ground

• Damaged KS2

Diagnostic Aids: The vehicle may need to be driven for several minutes to set this DTC.

Application Key On Engine Off Key On Engine Running Continuous Memory

All GO to Pinpoint Test DG.

P0333 - Knock Sensor 2 Circuit High (Bank 2)

Description: This DTC sets when the voltage goes outside a calibrated level. The knock sensor 2 (KS2) detects vibrations

upon increase and decrease in engine RPM. The KS2 generates a voltage based on this vibration.

Possible Causes: • KS2+ circuit short to voltage

• KS2- circuit short to voltage

• Damaged KS2

Diagnostic Aids: The vehicle may need to be driven for several minutes to set this DTC.

Application Key On Engine Off Key On Engine Running Continuous Memory

All GO to Pinpoint Test DG.

P0335 - Crankshaft Position Sensor A Circuit

Description: This DTC sets when the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor profile ignition pickup (PIP) pulse is missing for

greater than a calibrated number of camshaft revolutions when the camshaft speed exceeds the equivalent speed of engine idle or the starter motor is engaged.

Possible Causes: • CKP+ circuit intermittent open (VR type)

• CKP- circuit open (VR type)

• CKP circuit open (Hall effect type)

• VREF circuit open (Hall effect type)

• SIGRTN circuit open (Hall effect type)

• CKP+ circuit short to voltage (VR type)

• CKP- circuit short to voltage (VR type)

• CKP circuit short to voltage (Hall effect type)

• VREF circuit short to voltage (Hall effect type)

• SIGRTN circuit short to voltage (Hall effect type)

• CKP+ circuit short to ground (VR type)

• CKP- circuit short to ground (VR type)

• CKP circuit short to ground (Hall effect type)

• VREF circuit short to ground (Hall effect type)

• SIGRTN circuit short to ground (Hall effect type)

• Damaged CKP sensor

• CKP sensor incorrectly installed

• Incorrect, damaged or corroded connections

Diagnostic Aids: An inactive CKP signal causes a no start condition. Monitor the RPM PID while cranking the engine. A value of

0 RPM indicates a CKP concern.

P0336 - Crankshaft Position Sensor A Circuit Range/Performance

Description: This DTC sets when the input signal from the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor is erratic.

Possible Causes: • CKP circuit noise

• Damaged CKP sensor connection

• Damaged CKP sensor

• Damaged crankshaft pulse wheel teeth
