Technical '06 Panda crank sensor issue.....

[RDM1]

Ok so disconnected the battery touching the positive and negative battery terminals to each other and worked for a few on using the prob to touch the outer 2 wires of the camshaft position sensor and i still get an immediate jump to 4.90v

 

[koalar]

So jump the 2 wires on both sides of the plug after disconnecting the battery then connect the battery and check?

No

Disconnect the battery first

Then touch the battery positive lead to negative lead

Reconnect

Retest the voltage on the camshaft sensor

 

[RDM1]

Did this at first and still getting the same result (forgot to jump the plug leads first time)

 

[koalar]

Good 5v ref is okay

Push the accelerator down and turn the ignition on after about 30 seconds does the engine check light start to flash

 

[RDM1]

No the check engine light did not flash

 

[koalar]

No the check engine light did not flash

Let me double check the procedure, I was working from memory

 

[koalar]

Got it wrong


turn the ignition key to MAR;

Then press and hold down the accelerator pedal: the warning light turns on for about 8 seconds, and then goes off;

release the accelerator pedal engine light should flash

 

[RDM1]

It's not doing it, it keeps beeping for as long as i hold the march position even after releasing the gas pedal

 

[koalar]

Mar = ignition on you shouldn't behave to hold it?

 

[RDM1]

Oh my bad i thought march was cranking

 

[RDM1]

Still nope even after more than 8 seconds

 

[RDM1]

Correct?

 

[A3jeroen]

Are we sure the Duologic/MTA/selespeed gives the signal transmission neutral?

Are we absolutely sure the signal from the cranksensor is there constant during cranking?

[RDM1]

Both yes because we checked them on the scan tool and they are both being read correctly

 

[RDM1]

If you want to be sure about the CPS check back when we were talking there is a graph about it

I was wondering about the brake switch it did a few errors early on, intermittent, but nothing on the scan tool lately

Registered fine in on the original scan tool, but it's not been checked since the car last run


There were a few gearbox glitches early on also

 

[RDM1]

Which gearbox errors are you referring to? Because there was alternator that was gone after the electrical cleanup but the brake switch still appears every now and then no idea why but it's so not frequent

 

[RDM1]

Did remove it and fitted it back in its place but it still appears every once in a long while

 

[RDM1]

Want me to do a full scan sweep through?
