What does the fault code P150200 of GAC Trumpchi mean?
1 Answers
The fault code P150200 in the GAC Trumpchi GS4 indicates a malfunction of the vehicle's crankshaft position sensor. Replacing the crankshaft position sensor will resolve the issue. The function of the crankshaft position sensor is to determine the position of the crankshaft, specifically the crankshaft's angle and the engine's rotational speed. The crankshaft position sensor is typically installed at the front end of the crankshaft (near the pulley), the rear end near the flywheel, or the middle of the crankshaft. In older models, it may also be located inside the distributor. It is one of the most critical sensors in the control system. The functions of the crankshaft position sensor include: detecting the engine speed, hence it is also known as the speed sensor; detecting the top dead center position of the pistons, thus referred to as the top dead center sensor. This includes detecting the top dead center signals for each cylinder used in ignition control and the top dead center signal for the first cylinder used in sequential fuel injection control. Specific steps for replacing the crankshaft position sensor: Locate the crankshaft position sensor in the GAC Trumpchi GS4, use tools to loosen the fixing screws of the sensor, and manually unscrew them. Remove the old crankshaft position sensor from the vehicle. Install the new sensor in the GAC Trumpchi GS4 to complete the process.
