    I had a blown head gasket on my 2004 2.7 L Tacoma, it has 287,000 miles on it so I figured I’d go ahead and do the timing chain oil pump harmonic balancer water pump balancer chain and Cam and crank sensors with a reman head. Before I put the belts on and radiator hoses, I wanted to see that it would fire off and it did although it was extremely rough (Only ran it for a few seconds), So I went ahead and started adding accessories and tried to fire up again and I’m getting the error code P0335, I happen to have had a second set of cam and crank sensors that I had ordered cause I misplaced the first set so I went ahead and replaced it reset the computer and I am still getting the P0335. I’m starting to wonder if it’s possible that I have the timing 180° out. Has anybody experience this. I figured I’d reach out before I tear the whole thing down to the timing chain again. Any input is greatly appreciated thank you

    P0335 mean the ECM isn't seeing a crank signal.

    I suspect a wiring issue.

    We can check that, let me dig up some diagrams and pinouts.

    You will need a voltage meter.

    1. Unplug the crank and cam sensor.
    Again unplug BOTH of those sensors.

    2. Find the ECM. Unplug connector E7 (pictured below)

    3. Go back to the Crank Sensor and place a jumper wire between pins 1 and 2 of the connector.

    4. Then grab your meter and set it to Ohms/Continuity.

    5. Go to the ECM E7 plug you disconnected earlier, and check for continuity between pins 16 and 24.

    Thank you so much for the input, talk about thorough, lol. Had a friend that had a real time OBD computer and we hooked it up and could see that RPM was zero when we cranked it over. For shits and giggles before we started ohming things out he asked if I had the old one we were gonna compare it with a meter but we said the hell with it and threw it in and the damn thing fired right up. So that’s two new crank sensors off Amazon that we’re both bad. I really do appreciate the quick response, this may be my first post, but I have been on this forum for years and I have gathered so much valuable information. Thank you and thank you to Whoever keeps this forum going. It’s a lifesaver

    Amazon parts strike again.
    If I had known you used "aftermarket" senors.
    I would have said to get a "good" one. OEM is best.

    Good to hear you got it going. :)
    If you ever need more help, feel free to ask.
