P0337

Crankshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit Low Input

Severesensor

Overview

The P0337 diagnostic trouble code means the PCM has identified a crankshaft position sensor "a" circuit low input problem. This code indicates that a sensor or its circuit is not providing expected readings to the engine management system. Faulty sensor data can cause the PCM to make incorrect adjustments, affecting engine performance.

Symptoms

  • Hard starting in certain conditions
  • Engine running rough
  • Erratic engine behavior
  • Reduced engine performance

Common Causes

  • Sensor contamination or buildup
  • Faulty sensor (out of range or failed)
  • Faulty PCM (Powertrain Control Module)
  • Poor ground connection for sensor

Diagnosis Steps

  1. 1Connect an OBD-II scanner and read all stored trouble codes and freeze frame data
  2. 2Locate the specific sensor referenced by the code
  3. 3Inspect the sensor connector for corrosion, damage, or loose pins
  4. 4Test the sensor output using a multimeter or scan tool live data
  5. 5Check the wiring between the sensor and the PCM for opens or shorts
