OPERATION
- Power is supplied to the camshaft position sensor (terminal No. 3) from the engine control relay (terminal No. 1) and is earthed to the engine-A/T-ECU (terminal No. 16) from the camshaft position sensor (terminal No. 1).
- A power voltage of 5 V is applied to the camshaft position sensor output terminal (terminal No. 2) from the engine-A/T-ECU (terminal No. 56).
FUNCTION
- The camshaft position sensor detects the top dead center on the compression stroke of the No. 1 cylinder and inputs a pulse signal to the engine-A/T-ECU.
TROUBLE JUDGMENT
Check Conditions
- 60 seconds later after the ignition switch has been in "ON" position or the engine has started up.
- Engine speed of 500 r/min or more.
Judgment Criterion
- Sensor output voltage remains unchanged (no pulse signal is inputted) for 4 seconds.
PROBABLE CAUSE
- Failed camshaft position sensor
- Open/short circuit in camshaft position sensor circuit or loose connector contact
- Failed engine-A/T-ECU
