The scan tool indicates Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P1337: No signal in the Crankshaft Speed Fluctuation (CKF)
sensor circuit.
Description
The diagnostic system has a pulser rotor on the crankshaft and a pulse pick-up sensor on the engine block. The ECM/PCM
monitors the crankshaft speed fluctuation based on the CKF sensor signal, and judges that an engine misfire occurred if
the fluctuation goes beyond a predetermined limit.
