NOTE: Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review the general troubleshooting information (see GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION ).

Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
Clear the DTC with the HDS.
Start the engine.
Check for Pending or Confirmed 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 PCM.
Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
Disconnect the CMP sensor A 3P connector.
Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
Measure the voltage between CMP sensor A 3P connector terminal No. 3 and body ground.

Is there continuity?

YES -Go to step 23.

NO -Repair an open in the wire between the PCM (C41) and CMP sensor A, then go to step 18.
Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
Replace CMP sensor A (see CMP SENSOR A REPLACEMENT ).
Reconnect all connectors.
Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
Reset the PCM with the HDS.
Do the PCM idle learn procedure (see PCM IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE ).
Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC P0340 indicated?

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

NO -Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC'S TROUBLESHOOTING .
Reconnect all connectors.
Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software (see PCM UPDATE ), or substitute a known-good PCM (see SUBSTITUTING THE PCM ).
Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC P0340 indicated?

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

NO -If the PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM (see PCM REPLACEMENT ). If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC'S TROUBLESHOOTING .
