DESCRIPTION
In cold weather conditions of approx. 14 degrees F, the vehicle will crank, but will not start. The MIL illuminates and DTC P0335 is stored in memory. This is caused by the PCM calibration incorrectly reading the Crankshaft Position Sensor signal at a very specific engine RPM. If the following conditions are met, the MIL will illuminate and set DTC P0335:
• Engine cranks at 160 RPM (normal engine cranking is approx. 250 RPM).
• No signal from the Crank shaft Position Sensor due to unknown conditions, or the PCM may be incorrectly reading the signal from the Crankshaft Position Sensor.
NOTE: If both of the conditions above occur at the same time, and last for 4.2 seconds or more, the MIL will illuminate and set DTC P0335. A revised PCM calibration is available on WDS B24.6 or later software to resolve this concern.
Never prepared to settle for anything less than first place, Mazda have always built sports cars with a passion to win. From the world’s best-selling Mazda MX-5, through the award-winning innovation of Mazda RX-8’s rotary engine, to the first Japanese race car to win Le Mans, Mazda have combined insight and imagination with cutting-edge technical excellence to create simply outstanding cars. From the same place, somewhere between heart and head, comes the Mazda Performance Series – engineered to stretch expectations. With an outstanding 260ps, combined with exceptional sports car handling and advanced 4×4 technology, you always knew the Mazda6 MPS was going to rewrite the rules – once again.
The 2010 Mazda CX-9 is not just another boxy crossover. It has an aerodynamic form that provides comfort and elegance to seven passengers, and more than adequate cargo space. I drove the Grand Touring CX-9 with the heated, 8-way power adjustable driver seat that memorized settings for up to three drivers. The cabin was already primed and positioned each time I sat behind the leather- wrapped steering wheel that tilts and telescopes. The CX-9 has a spirited 273 hp V-6 engine with the advanced 6-speed automatic transmission with manual shift mode. The three automatic climate control was perfect, although in North Texas the weather varies as much as 40 degrees in a 24-hour period.
Stop. Take a listen. You’ll hear it everywhere. The double beat. The one-two cadence that propels us all from deep within. Thump-Thump. Goes the heart. The boxer throws the powerful one-two—boxing’s most feared combination. Two quick claps of the hands and dancers prepare for perfection. Snap your fingers two times and watch as everyone around gets ready to move. Why do rock legends tap the microphone twice before melting your face? What makes a thoroughbred’s muscles respond to two clicks from a jockey’s mouth? This is no mere coincidence. The double beat lives on a deeper level. An emotional level.
Thanks for purchasing the Real World Solutions EC2 engine controller for the 13B Mazda rotary. We have endeavored to make it the most versatile and reliable controller on the market today. Needless to say, the quality of installation is just as important as the quality of the hardware itself. It is not practical to include a course on proper electrical wiring practices in these installation instructions, but it is imperative that proper wiring techniques be employed during the installation of the EC2. Good connections and proper strain relief are crucial to system reliability. If you are not comfortable with reading a wiring schematic or wiring of electrical equipment, find someone to assist you. If you are in doubt about any of the instructions that follow, please contact me before operating the controller. I want your project to succeed and your life to be a long and happy one.
Common Problems
1. I can’t find my vehicle’s OBD-II connector.
On some vehicles it can be concealed or not in the driver’s area. Don’t forget to see Appendix A of the ScanTool User Guide for details on “hard-to-find” Data Link Connectors (DLC). Sometimes it also helps to “crouch” outside of the vehicle and use a flashlight to look under the dash. Also, you might find a sticker with the actual DLC location instead of a DLC. Lastly, run your hand underneath the dash to feel for a connector that would fit the vehicle end of the AutoEnginuity ScanTool OBD-II connector.
2. I can’t get a checkmark to appear next to Locating OBD-II Connector.
Check that the serial/COM port cable is firmly connected to the PC and to the AutoEnginuity ScanTool OBD-II connector. Also, check that the serial/COM port you are connected to on the PC is the same one that is selected in the Communications Configuration window. If you are using a USB-to-serial adaptor, make sure the device drivers are installed. Finally, check the serial/COM port settings. The ScanTool requires 19,200 baud. See Appendix D: Serial Port Troubleshooting in your ScanTool User Guide for complete details on how to do this.
3. I get a checkmark after the Locating OBD-II Connector, but no other checkmarks appear.
Most likely the vehicle interface type is incorrect for your vehicle or Auto Detect failed to determine the vehicle interface type. (See Table 1.) Open the Connection Configuration window to set the correct vehicle interface type by clicking the AutoEnginuity logo in the Connection Status window, or by selecting Communications Configuration in the Vehicle menu. Also, make sure that the PC and the vehicle are properly cabled, the AutoEnginuity ScanTool OBD-II connector is firmly attached to the vehicle’s DTC, and that either the vehicle’s key is in the “ON” position or the vehicle is running.
