DTC P1335 Crankshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunc-
tion (During engine running)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Refer to DTC P0335 on page DI-67.
DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
P1335No crankshaft position sensor signal to ECM with engine
speed 1,000 rpm or more
Open or short in crankshaft position sensor circuit

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Refer to DTC P0335 on page DI-67.
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using TOYOTA hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool. Because freeze frame records
the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, it is useful for determining
whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the air-fuel ratio was lean
or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.

DTC P1345 VVT Sensor/Camshaft Position Sensor Cir-
cuit Malfunction (Bank 1)
DTC P1350 VVT Sensor/Camshaft Position Sensor Cir-
cuit Malfunction (Bank 2)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
VVT sensor (VV signal) consists of a magnet, iron core and pickup coil.
The VV signal plate has 3 teeth on its outer circumference and is installed the camshaft timing gear.
When the camshafts rotate, the protrusion on the signal plate and the air gap on the pickup coil change,
causing fluctuations in the magnetic field and generating an electromotive force in the pickup coil.
The actual camshaft angle is detected by the VVT sensor and it provides feedback to the ECM to control
the intake valve timing in response to during condition.
DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
No VVT sensor (Camshaft position sensor) signal to ECM

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
If DTC P1345 is displayed, check left bank VVT sensor (camshaft position sensor).
If DTC P1350 is displayed, check right bank VVT sensor (camshaft position sensor).
Read freeze frame data using TOYOTA hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool. Because freeze frame
records the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, it is useful for
determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the air-fuel
ratio was lean or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.
1 Check resistance of VVT sensor (See page IG-7).
Reference: INSPECTION USING OSCILLOSCOPE
During idling, check the waveforms between terminals VV1 and
NE+, and VV2 and NE- of the ECM connector.
HINT:
The correct waveforms are as shown.
The waveform frequency is shortened as the engine
speed becomes higher.
NG Replace VVT sensor.

DTC P1349 VVT System Malfunction (Bank 1)
DTC P1354 VVT System Malfunction (Bank 2)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
VVT system controls the intake valve timing to proper timing in response to driving condition.
ECM controls Oil Control Valve (OCV) to make the intake valve timing properly, and, oil pressure controlled
with OCV is supplied to the VVT controller, and then, VVT controller changes relative position between the
camshaft and the crankshaft.

TOYOTA hand-held tester:
1 Check valve timing (See page EM-15).
NG Repair valve timing.
OK
2 Check operation of OCV.
PREPARATION:
(a) Start the engine and warmed it up.
(b) Connect the TOYOTA hand-held tester and select the VVT from the ACTIVE TEST menu.
CHECK:
Check the engine speed when operate the OCV by the TOYOTA hand-held tester.
OK:
OCV is OFF: Normal engine speed
OCV is ON: Rough idle or engine stall
OK VVT system is OK.*
*: DTCs P1349 and P1354 are also output after the foreign ob-
ject is caught in some part of the system in the engine oil and
the system returns to normal in a short time. As ECM controls
so that foreign objects are ejected, there is no problem about
VVT. There is also no problem since the oil filter should get the
foreign object in the engine oil.
