Instead, the following content merely attempts to give you a better idea of what a do-it-yourself approach to the issue might involve. You are encouraged to find more technical resources regarding the subject or take your vehicle to a professional technician for the best results.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As with most of the other OBD-II codes, there is no single universal fix for the P0335 code. There are a multitude of possible causes for a code to appear, and you&rsquo;ll have to identify the exact underlying issues before you can proceed to find a fix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most common and reliable fixes include replacing your vehicle&rsquo;s crankshaft position sensor, as well as changing the timing belt or chain. However, do not try this if you aren&rsquo;t familiar with how to do the job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While it is possible to entrust such fixes to a mechanic, it&rsquo;s also possible to carry out these repairs yourself if you have the time, patience, tools, and gumption, particularly when it comes to replacing the timing belt or chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Doing so could potentially save you a lot of money since you won&rsquo;t have to pay a professional for labor costs. However, you&rsquo;ll also need to be extra careful as one misstep could spell disastrous consequences for your vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&rsquo;re keen on learning how to fix a P0335 code yourself, or if you&rsquo;re simply curious about the process, be sure to read these simple step-by-step guides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Replace the Crankshaft Position Sensor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For those of you who want to replace your vehicle&rsquo;s crankshaft position sensor, here&rsquo;s a handy guide, but you can also find a good video that shows somebody replacing the crank sensor for your specific vehicle, because replacing the CKP sensor isn&rsquo;t the same on every vehicle. It&rsquo;s best to either find a video or look for specific instructions online. Don&rsquo;t attempt this without doing one or both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Park your vehicle on a flat and even surface away from other vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Turn off the car battery and disconnect it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Using the video for your vehicle or the material you found online, find your vehicle&rsquo;s crankshaft position sensor. The location obviously varies depending on the make and model of your vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Release the electrical connector attached to the crankshaft position sensor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. Remove the mount bolt that retains the sensor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6. Uninstall the crankshaft position sensor and remove it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>7. Mount and install the new crankshaft position sensor. Note any special procedures. <\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kadence-column10130_28fb69-dd > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column10130_28fb69-dd >

Replacing a crankshaft position sensor is costly and requires a lot of skill, but it&rsquo;s also one of the most reliable ways to fix code P0335.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Replace the Timing Belt<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to know how to replace a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/timing-belt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"timing belt\">timing belt<\/a> by yourself, here&rsquo;s a general guide. Again, before you start, gather all the information you can from a video and online sources on exactly how to do this job. These steps are very general to give you an idea of what&rsquo;s involved and can&rsquo;t be used on every vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Park your vehicle on a flat and even surface away from other vehicles.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Disconnect the negative battery cable.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remove the accessories blocking access to the timing belt like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/alternator-belt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"alternator belt\">alternator belt<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/alternator\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"alternator\">alternator<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/power-steering-pump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"power steering pump\">power steering pump<\/a>, and valve cover assembly. The information you found online will be useful for this step.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remove the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/distributor-cap\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"distributor cap\">distributor cap<\/a> (if equipped, so you can identify the firing position of cylinder 1).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Align the timing marks of your vehicle&rsquo;s engine until the crankshaft pulley matches up with the 0&deg; mark on the timing scale with the number 1 piston at TDC compression.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Since the harmonic pulley is virtually always in the way of the timing belt, you&rsquo;ll need to remove it usually with special tools.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remove the timing cover by unscrewing the bolts that keep it secure and locked in place.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Loosen the mounting bolts that hold the belt tensioner, but don&rsquo;t remove them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inspect the tensioner pulley for any signs of damage. If it&rsquo;s cracked or broken, replace it immediately.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remove the timing belt.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Install the new timing belt.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reinstall all the different parts and bolts you removed to access the timing belt.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Give your vehicle a test run.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Bear in mind that this process requires a great deal of expertise. If you aren&rsquo;t confident in your mechanical skills, it might be safer and smarter to leave it to a professional. The cost of a timing belt ranges from $2 to $200.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Notes About P0335<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You shouldn&rsquo;t continue to drive your vehicle once it triggers this code.
