- CEL with multiple codes set together
- No-start (CKP/CMP)
- Gauge/speedometer dropout
- Transmission limp or shift faults
- Scan tool communication loss
What Causes HINO-P0335? (Most Likely First)
- Damaged sensor or wiring in affected circuit Likely
- CAN bus harness chafing in chassis routing Possible
- Poor battery or ground — dual-battery J08 setups common Possible
- Water intrusion at cab / body harness disconnect Possible
- ECM / TCM internal fault (rare) Less Likely
Can I Still Drive with HINO-P0335?
Short distances only. HINO-P0335 is rated serious severity. Keep trips short and get it diagnosed soon rather than waiting for symptoms to worsen.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Hino code P0335 mean?
Hino diagnostic trouble code P0335 (Crankshaft Position Sensor Circuit) is a serious-severity fault on Hino medium-duty diesel engines. It indicates a problem in the engine that should be verified with a scan tool (Hino DX3 / DX4) before replacing any parts.
Can I drive my Hino truck with P0335?
Short runs may be possible but do not ignore — Hino medium-duty aftertreatment faults cascade quickly into 5-mph derate or no-restart. Schedule diagnosis immediately.
How much does it cost to fix Hino P0335?
Estimated repair cost runs $250-$2,800. Sensor, wiring, and DEF-related repairs fall at the low end; DPF service, turbo, injector, and EGR cooler work fall at the high end and may require dealer-level programming.
Mechanics Guide Step-by-step diagnosis
How Do You Diagnose HINO-P0335?
Inspect engine-to-frame and engine-to-body grounds for corrosion — the #1 root cause of U-codes on Hino medium-duty.
Measure battery voltage at rest and cranking. Replace weak batteries before diagnosing CAN faults.
Measure CAN H / CAN L resistance at diagnostic port — ~60 ohms key off indicates healthy dual-termination.
For CKP / CMP, ohm the sensor, inspect reluctor for damage, verify air gap with feeler gauge.
Run ECM / TCM self-diagnostic routine on Hino DX3 if wiring and power check out.
