However, the code isn&rsquo;t really meant to signify a failure in either of the sensors. This code is only meant to signify that there&rsquo;s something wrong with one of these circuits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that P0322 is a rare code that doesn&rsquo;t appear on most vehicle platforms. You may be wondering why the definition corresponds to engine speed when the faulty part is actually one of the sensor circuits. It&rsquo;s because the PCM uses the sensors to determine <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/what-does-car-rpm-stand-for\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"engine RPM\">engine RPM<\/a>, hence the code definition &ldquo;engine speed input circuit no signal.&rdquo;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"864\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/camshaft-position-sensor-image-1024x864.jpg\" alt=\"camshaft position sensor image\" class=\"wp-image-46273\" style=\"width:1024px;height:864px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/camshaft-position-sensor-image-1024x864.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/camshaft-position-sensor-image-300x253.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/camshaft-position-sensor-image-768x648.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/camshaft-position-sensor-image-150x127.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/camshaft-position-sensor-image.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The code P0322 may be set when the PCM does not detect a signal from either the camshaft position sensor or crankshaft position sensor.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Note:<\/em><\/strong><em> The definition of the P0322 code may be different depending on the vehicle manufacturer.

But once you&rsquo;ve identified the cause, there&rsquo;s no magic bullet because solutions can vary. The first step towards a possible fix is consulting a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/why-you-should-always-consult-a-repair-manual\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"repair manual or online repair database\">repair manual or online repair database<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All vehicles are different. You&rsquo;ll need to make sure you&rsquo;ve gathered all the repair information you need before you troubleshoot and repair the underlying issues behind diagnostic trouble codes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Crank and Cam Sensors and How They Can Produce Trouble Codes like P0322<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Crank sensor input is as old as on-board engine computers. Some Fords had crankshaft sensors beginning in 1979 but the crank sensor disappeared in favor of a &ldquo;profile ignition pickup&rdquo; Hall Effect stator in the distributor beginning in 1984.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But in the late &lsquo;80s and early &lsquo;90s, crank sensors had returned to some Ford platforms along with coil pack ignition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Crank and Cam Sensor Configurations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The crank sensor is typically one of the more important inputs and is required for the engine to run. But in some cases (like on a few Asian make SUVs), a crank sensor will only be used for misfire detection. Units with this configuration will typically have a distributor with integral speed and position sensors rather than coil pack or COP ignition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/crankshaft-position-sensor-configuration-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"crankshaft position sensor configuration\" class=\"wp-image-77637\" style=\"width:1024px;height:682px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/crankshaft-position-sensor-configuration-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/crankshaft-position-sensor-configuration-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/crankshaft-position-sensor-configuration-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/crankshaft-position-sensor-configuration-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/crankshaft-position-sensor-configuration-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/crankshaft-position-sensor-configuration-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/crankshaft-position-sensor-configuration-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/crankshaft-position-sensor-configuration.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The crank sensor is typically one of the more important inputs and is required for the engine to run.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On the Jeep 4.0L beginning in 1987, a crank sensor<strong> <\/strong>was used for ignition triggering and a 50% duty cycle cam sensor was used in the distributor until coil rail ignition replaced the distributor. At that point, the cam sensor was in a small &ldquo;synchronizer&rdquo; that looked like a distributor without a bowl. And if that cam sensor becomes maladjusted, it can cause very strange misfires and ignition related codes that make no sense on companion cylinders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The camshaft sensor will read directly from the camshaft if there is no cam sensor in the distributor. The ECM\/PCM is always watching for crank and cam sensor correlation and will throw various different codes depending on the manufacturer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cam sensor input has become vastly more important on modern engines with variable cam timing and is most often a critical piece of information when it comes to troubleshooting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When the Crank and Cam Sensors Malfunction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some vehicles will continue to run even if the crank sensor signal is lost while driving (like on a 2010 Chevy Cobalt), but the engine will always fail to start on the next attempt if there is no crank sensor signal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"article-search-widget\">\n<div class=\"cp-search\">\n<div align=\"center\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cld.partsimg.com\/image\/upload\/w_auto,dpr_auto\/carparts\/logos\/badge_wordmark\/full_color\/CP_LOGO_COLOUR_RGB\" alt=\"CarParts.com\" width=\"300\" height=\"56\">\n<\/div>\n<form id=\"cpsearchform\" name=\"cpsearchform\" action=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/search\" method=\"get\" target=\"_blank\" accept-charset=\"character_set\" aria-label=\"search CarParts.com\">\n    <input type=\"text\" class=\"keyword\" name=\"q\" placeholder=\"Search for parts on CarParts.com\" value=\"\" aria-label=\"Search CarParts.com\"><input type=\"submit\" class=\"btn-search\" value=\"Search\" aria-label=\"Search\">\n<\/form>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The cam sensor may or may not cause a no-start condition depending on the platform, but both signals are necessary for proper control of fuel injection, timing, and other emission-related engine functions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Nissan V6 may have a long crank, hard if one of the 2 cam sensor signals is lost. Four cylinder Nissan Altimas from the 2000s decade may start one time and then not start the next time if the cam sensor signal isn&rsquo;t present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the cam sensor signal is lost on some vehicles, they will either start hard or they may bank-fire the injectors rather than firing them sequentially, and that will cause a dreadful loss of fuel economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cam and Crank Patterns<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some cam\/crank patterns from 2006. Notice some are analog (wave) and some are square wave Hall Effect type signals. Some have one of each.
