Crankshaft Position and Engine Speed Sensor
Description
The crankshaft sensor is checked for loss of signal during cranking and engine running conditions. When the appropriate entry conditions have been met a loss of sensor pulses for greater than the predefined time will register a fault. If the fault is registered on 2 drive cycles then the MIL will illuminate.
Additionally if the number of crankshaft sensor pulses is incorrect by more than one pulse in any one engine revolution then a fault event is recorded. If the number of fault events exceeds the limit without the engine synchronising then a crankshaft range performance fault is registered. If the fault is registered on 2 drive cycles then the MIL will illuminate.
