1. Install a scan tool.
2. Monitor the engine control module (ECM) for DTCs with a scan tool. If other DTCs are set, except DTC P0315, refer toDiagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC) List - Vehicle (See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Diagnostic Trouble Code
Descriptions) for the applicable DTC that set.
3. Select the crankshaft position (CKP) variation learn procedure with a scan tool.

2. Set parking brake.
3. Apply and hold brake pedal.
Important: The engine may autostop and will restart as needed.

Important: The scan tool monitors certain component signals to determine if all the conditions are met to continue with the procedure.
The scan tool only displays the condition that inhibits the procedure. The scan tool monitors the following components:
*
CKP sensors activity-If there is a CKP sensor condition, refer to the applicable DTC that set.
