Code Definition

P1335 — Crankshaft Position Sensor (REF)

System: Powertrain  |  Type: Manufacturer-Specific  |  Make: Nissan

About P1335

P1335 is a manufacturer-specific powertrain diagnostic trouble code recorded for Nissan vehicles. It belongs to the P-prefix family of codes, which covers engine, transmission, emissions, or fuel-system faults.

When P1335 is stored, the module has detected a sensor-related fault — the reported value from the named sensor is out of spec.

Scanning & clearing: A generic OBD-II scan tool will usually read and clear powertrain (P) codes. For live data, freeze-frame capture, and bi-directional tests you may need a more capable scan tool that supports the vehicle's ECM protocol.

P1335 is a manufacturer-specific code. The same code string on a different make may have a different meaning. Always confirm the code's definition against the vehicle's service information for the specific make and model under test.

Code Information

On these Nissan engines the Crankshaft Position Sensor REF signal provides the Engine Control Module (ECM) with a cylinder reference and engine speed input used to control the fuel injection sequence and ignition timing. The sensor generates a pulsed signal as the signal plate or rotor teeth pass its tip, and the ECM counts these pulses to establish crankshaft reference position. DTC P1335 sets when the ECM detects that the REF signal is missing, intermittent, or outside the expected pattern while the engine is cranking or running. Typical symptoms include hard starting, a no start condition, ...
