P0335 Crank Sensor:: i know that wont let the car start.

Since im limited to day light and working on a gravel drive way for the time being, i didnt get 100% done but this is what i found.

The car was givng me a P0335 code before. So i decided to look at the crank angle sensor. Soon as i took off the upper timing belt cover i saw pieces of the balance shaft belt. i then took off the crank pully and a few bolts to the lower timing belt cover.

I never got the lower half of the cover off, due to light. But i did look behing the cover as much as i could. i pulled out more pieces of the balance shaft belt( not sure if theres more stuck in there) and barely saw the crank angle. Didnt look broke, but was definitly dirty and grimey. but like i said i could barely see it.

So what does the balance shaft belt, and crank angle sensor have to do with me not getting fuel? This is all new to me, I never owned a 4g63 (long enough).

Can any one help?

The Crank Angle Position Sensor is everything in the car. All of your spark and ignition events are in some way based off of your crank angle position sensor. I am almost positive if you replace it you car will be just fine. Last Thursday my car decided to let one of the crank angle position sensor bolts come loose, and the timing plate took out the sensor, and the car immediately died. Most likley if you see balance shaft belt pieces, there is damage to the crank sensor. This is because everything is so tight behind the lower cover that if there is anything "floating" around in there, you will start to incur damage in some way shape or form. The timing plate probably tried to force a piece of the belt through the crank sensor, and broke the magnet inside of the sensor thus causing it not to read. When my sensor went, the car would crank all day, but never start. (No fuel or spark for me, and it was displaying a P0335 as well.)

Basically, do the following:

1. Order a crank angle position sensor, MN158261
2. Order a new timing plate. (Just to be safe, in case of damage found)
3. Order a new balance shaft belt
4. Order a new timing belt (If you see damage to current belt)
5. You will need a belt tension release tool (Either make or buy one)

Get in there and replace the items listed above. If you car has never had a timing belt replaced, and your miles are around 60K, you might want to think about doing the standard maintenance job of Water Pump, Timing Belt, Belt Tensioner, Belt Tensioner Bearing(s), Balance Shaft Belt etc.. It will be a little pricey at first, but well worth it in the end because it will bring the car back to running very heathy again will all the new service parts in there.

Its not that hard of a job to do, I did my complete timing belt job in about 3 hours, start to finish including getting out tools/jacking the car up etc.. But then again, I have done this about 4 times now so I have the process down pat.

I had an issue with po335, replace your crankshaft position sensor, this sensor tells the ECU based on firing order to power the fuel pump and igntion. It's $77 from mitsubishiparts.net (AKA bruce titus automotive). Hope this helps.

thanks guys.

i just had all my belts replaced last year....about 10k miles ago. my car has 85k miles on it. the thing that scares me is i read in another post that someones balance shaft locked up due to pieces of there rod bearings getting in the oil.

I tried pulling the cover off today got everything off except one pully...it looks like i have to drop the motor a little bit to get the bolt all the way off. Im so tired of working on a gravel drive way lol and i dont have time, two jobs and a daughter will do that. So im just going to take it some where.

i'll keep you guys posted in a new thread on what happens.

SAME exact thing happened to me... smh....
i even did a compression test... and it seems that i was only reading 30psi in cylinder 1 and 2...
also i was getting spark...
but the fuel pump won't turn on when i put it in ACC i'd usually hear it start adn shut off... but when i try and crank the car... i was getting fuel to the rail... i checked...

might need a sensor as well... smh...

Any updates on what fixed this for the guys that were having this problem? I had a similar issue while driving tonight, engine turned off but all electronics were still on and I no longer hear the pump engage.

Well I know I"m like a year late but I'm troubleshooting a similar problem right now.

Here is a diagram from the Evo 9 FSM. I bet yours is similar.

B128 is the location of Fuel Pump Relay 3

Hello sir i have the same problem on my evo7 and im from the philippines. My car also died when my evo7 is in place only and just starting the car 3 times a week coz its a show car evo7. I tried wiring my fuel pump directly on my battery just to test if its working...yes it did start, but when i did not do this way, it wont start. So you think its in our fuel relay?

Vorrman Ting

I have a jdm evo7 and my car wont start and it died one day when i was just starting my evo on the garage, im not even on my evo that time, i was outside the car wiping the paint from dust. I just want to ask if how many fuel pump relays do my jdm evo7 has and where is it located in my evo7?

Vorrman Ting

hello sir, did you already fix your evo's fuel pump problem? It looks like i have a similar problem like yours hehe.
