P1361 code

Hi Horiavese,

Yes this means the crankshaft position sensor is about to go out here are diagrams (below) to help you see what you are in for when doing the job and step by steps guides to help walk you through it.

Thank you for this post I had this problem and the ensor fixed it cost me $78.00 fort the sensor all set!.... I love this site.

Hello, i just want to know the meaning and cause of this code and also how can i fix it myself? Please help me to fix this issue (P1361 Ignition Control (IC) Circuit Low Voltage) . thank you so much and more power.

Hi Maverick650

DTC P1361: CMP (TDC) SENSOR INTERMITTENT INTERRUPTION, DTC P1362: CMP (TDC) SENSOR NO SIGNAL
1. Reset the ECM/PCM
2. Start the engine. Is DTC P1361 and/or P1362 indicated? YES - Go to step 3. NO - Intermittent failure, system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the CMP (TDC) sensor and at the ECM/PCM.
3. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Disconnect the CMP (TDC) sensor 3P connector.
5. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
6. Measure voltage between CMP (TDC) sensor 3P connector terminal No. 3 and body ground.
Is there battery voltage? YES - Go to step 7. NO - Repair open in the wire between PGM-FI main relay 1 and the CMP (TDC) sensor.
7. Measure voltage between CMP (TDC) sensor 3P connector terminal No. 2 and body ground.
Is there about 5 V? YES - Go to step 8. NO - Go to step 10.
8. Measure voltage between CMP (TDC) sensor 3P connector terminals No. 1 and No. 3.
Is there battery voltage? YES - Go to step 9. NO - Repair open in the wire between the CMP (TDC) sensor and G101.
9. Substitute a known-good CMP (TDC) sensor and recheck. 8
Is DTC P1361 and/or P1362 indicated? YES - Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known- good ECM/PCM, then recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away with a known-good ECM/PCM, replace the original ECM/PCM. NO - Replace the original CMP (TDC) sensor.
Measure voltage between ECM/PCM connector terminal A26 and body ground.
Is there about 5 V? YES - Repair open in the wire between the ECM/PCM (A26) and CMP (TDC) sensor. NO - Go to step 11.
Turn the ignition switch OFF.
Disconnect ECM/PCM connector A (31P).
Check for continuity between ECM/PCM connector terminal A26 and body ground.
Is there continuity? YES - Repair short in the wire between the ECM/PCM (A26) and the CMP (TDC) sensor. NO - Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known- good ECM/PCM, then recheck . If the symptom/indication goes away with a known-good ECM/PCM, replace the original ECM/PCM.

P1361 TDC Sensor Intermittent Interruption

Usually caused by bad connection at the plug for TDC sensor.

hv a honda civic hx and got a reading P1362, the car turns over but wont star. Would that be the crankshaft or camshaft sensor?

Hi chadondra,

That is the code for CMP (TDC) sensor.

P1362 TDC1 sensor curcuit

dirty tdc sensor, faulty tdc sensor or worn wiring harness to the sensor

I have changed the camshaft and crankshaft sensor. I still have the same problem. I have read in other forms that an air gap has to be set in between the cam and senor had anybody else seen this ?

No air gap adjustment is needed. THis code can come up if the timing belt is off one tooth how does the engine run? Here is a guide so you can check the marks.
