P0335 code for 2006 Mitsubishi Outlander Sign In

I have a 2006 Mitsubishi Outlander that I've had troubled starting the last few days. Took it to O'Reilly's for a diagnostic check. It came back with a P0335 Crankshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction. The car will turn over after numerous attempts to start it. Do the senors go out at once or can they go out gradually? In the middle of this, the "Service Engine Soon" light has also come on.

Another problem, seems my cooling fan doesn't go on and my engine runs hot at stoplights. Can any of these be related? Or could it be the thermostat? I'm not losing coolant.

Thanks for your help!

The Crank sensor issue appears to be intermittent so it may be difficult to accurately troubleshoot. I would probably try a new sensor first since you don't have the ability to scope the circuit.

The fan issue may or may not be an actual problem. They are programmed to run hotter at idle intentionally.

Thanks for the circuit info...I'll try to replace it first and go from there.

As far as the fan---I meant to say it sounds like the fan DOES go on, but it runs really hot as to the red bar on the right.

Does it come down when the fan comes on?

No, it doesn't. Only way to bring it down is to put it in neutral and step on the gas.

Sorry..one more question--is the sensor had to replace in the Outlander? If it's not, any suggestions where I can get some instructions?

Maybe you want to read your question. I have no idea what you are asking.

I'd say the first thing you want to do is pressure test the cooling system to make sure it doesn't have any leaks and it's full of coolant.

Sorry--been a long day. My question is: Is it difficult to change the sensor on a 2006 Outlander? I see the part is around $75-$95. Is this a 30 minute job or 3 hour job to change it out as I don't want to overpay a mechanic. Or is it something an average person that does minor car repair could handle.

As far as the radiator - I'm not losing coolant--I've checked that daily to make sure.

NOOOOOO, I don't think you want to attempt that. The flat rate time is 5.2 hours.
It looks like it requires removing the timing belt.
