Fault Code 284 Engine Speed/Position Sensor (Crankshaft) Supply Voltage Circuit - Voltage Below Normal or Shorted To Low Source
Page 1 of 8
Circuit Description
The engine speed voltage supply provides +5 VDC for the engine speed sensor. If the
supply wire to this sensor is damaged, the sensor will not work properly.
Component Location
The engine speed sensor is located on the intake side of the engine between number 5 and
number 6 cylinders at the crankshaft level. Refer to Procedure 100-002 for detailed
component view location.
Shop Talk
Low voltage on the +5 VDC supply line can be caused by a short circuit to ground in a
supply line, a short circuit between a supply line or a return line, a failed sensor, or a failed
ECM power supply.

CAUTION
To reduce the possibility of damaging a new ECM, all other active fault
codes must be investigated prior to replacing the ECM.
CAUTION
To reduce the possibility of pin and harness damage, use the following
test leads when taking a measurement:
Part Number 3164596 - male Framatome test lead
Part Number 3822917 - female Deutsch/AMP/Metri-Pack test lead.
