DTC P1345 Crankshaft Position (CKP)-Camshaft Position

(CMP) Correlation
Circuit Description
This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) monitors the crankshaft

position (CKP) and the camshaft
position (CMP) signals to determine
if they are synchronized. If both signals are not observed by
the
control module within a narrow time window, the vehicle control
module (VCM) will determine
that an error has occurred.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The engine is running
Conditions for Setting the DTC
When the engine is running, the cam sensor reference pulse is

not detected at the correct position
relative to the crankshaft
position sensor pulse.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp

(MIL) the first time the
diagnostic runs and fails.
The control module will set the DTC and records the operating
conditions at the time the
diagnostic fails. The control module
stores the failure information in the scan tools Freeze
Frame/Failure Records.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL or DTC
The control module turns OFF the MIL after

3 consecutive drive trips when the test has run
and
passed. © 2021 General Motors. All rights reserved.

A history DTC will clear if no fault conditions have been

detected for 40 warm-up cycles. A
warm-up cycle occurs
when the coolant temperature has risen
22°C (40°F) from the startup
coolant
temperature and the engine coolant reaches a temperature that is
more than 70°C
(158°F) during the same
ignition cycle.
Use a scan tool in order to clear the DTCs.
Diagnostic Aids
Check the following items:
A loose CMP sensor causing a variance in the sensor

signal
Excessive free play in the timing chain and gear
assembly
Incorrectly installed distributor - 1 tooth off in either
advance or retard positions
A loose distributor rotor on the distributor shaft
A loose or missing distributor hold down bolt
An intermittent may be caused by any of the following

conditions:
A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation
Thoroughly check any circuitry that is suspected of causing

the intermittent complaint. Refer to
Intermittents and Poor Connections Diagnosis
in Wiring Systems.
If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs

or Connector Repairs
in Wiring Systems.
Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the

table.
4. This test will determine if this DTC is intermittent.

5. When the engine speed is raised to 2000 RPM the
camshaft retard offset should not vary
more than
2 degrees.
6. If excessive pressure is used when performing this test
unintentional damage to the
distributor shaft could result.
7. If the distributor is one tooth off in either the advanced or
retard positions the vehicle may
run but 0 degrees
camshaft retard offset will not be obtained.
8. If 0 degrees cannot be obtained during this
procedure refer to Diagnostic Aids.
