Symptoms
- Check Engine Light
- Engine may run rough
- Possible intermittent stalling
- Misfire codes may accompany
Common Causes
- CKP variation learn procedure not performed after sensor replacement
- PCM replacement without relearn
- Engine repairs that disturbed CKP timing
- Battery disconnect that cleared learned values
Diagnostic Steps
- Connect GM-compatible scan tool
- Perform CKP System Variation Learn procedure
- Warm engine to operating temperature
- Follow scan tool prompts for learn sequence (typically involves specific RPM targets)
- Clear codes after successful learn
Repair Notes
Perform CKP variation learn procedure with a scan tool. This requires bringing the engine to specific RPM ranges and holding steady as directed by the scan tool.
