DTC P0340: CMP Sensor A No Signal

NOTE: Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review the general troubleshooting information (see GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION )
  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II)
  2. Clear the DTC with the HDS
  3. Start the engine
  4. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS

    Is DTC P0340 indicated? 

    YES  -Go to step 5

    NO  -Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time Check for poor connections or loose terminals at CMP sensor A and the ECM/PCM

  5. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0)
  6. Disconnect the CMP sensor A 3P connector
  7. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II)
  8. Measure the voltage between CMP sensor A 3P connector terminal No 3 and body ground

    Is there battery voltage? 

    YES  -Go to step 9

    NO  -Repair open in the wire between CMP sensor A and the No 7 ACG (15 A) fuse, then go to step  18

  9. Measure the voltage between CMP sensor A 3P connector terminal No 1 and body ground

    Is there about 5 V? 

    YES  -Go to step 10

    NO  -Go to step  11

  10. Measure the voltage between CMP sensor A 3P connector terminals No 2 and No 3

    Is there battery voltage? 

    YES  -Go to step  16

    NO  -Repair open in the wire between CMP sensor A and G101 (see ENGINE WIRE HARNESS (A/T) ), then go to step  18

  11. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0)
  12. Jump the SCS line with the HDS
  13. Disconnect ECM/PCM connector C (49P)
  14. Check for continuity between ECM/PCM connector terminal C45 and body ground

    Is there continuity? 

    YES  -Repair short in the wire between the ECM/PCM (C45) and CMP sensor A, then go to step  18

    NO  -Go to step 15

  15. Check for continuity between CMP sensor A 3P connector terminal No 1 and ECM/PCM connector terminal C45

    Is there continuity? 

    YES  -Go to step  23

    NO  -Repair open in the wire between the ECM/PCM (C45) and CMP sensor A, then go to step  18

  16. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0)
  17. Replace CMP sensor A (see CMP SENSOR A REPLACEMENT )
  18. Reconnect all connectors
  19. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II)
  20. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS
  21. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure (see ECM/PCM IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE )
  22. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS

    Is DTC P0340 indicated? 

    YES  -Check for poor connections or loose terminals at CMP sensor A and the ECM/PCM, then go to step  1

    NO  -Troubleshooting is complete If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting

  23. Reconnect all connectors
  24. Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software (see ECM/PCM UPDATE ), or substitute a known-good ECM/PCM (see SUBSTITUTING THE ECM/PCM )
  25. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS

    Is DTC P0340 indicated? 

    YES  -Check for poor connections or loose terminals at CMP sensor A and the ECM/PCM If the ECM/PCM was updated, substitute a known-good ECM/PCM (see SUBSTITUTING THE ECM/PCM ), then recheck If the ECM/PCM was substituted, go to step  1

    NO  -If the ECM/PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete If the ECM/PCM was substituted, replace the original ECM/PCM (see ECM/PCM REPLACEMENT ) If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting
