MG MG3 P0339: No engine speed signal found in the source case

Symptoms

  • The starter motor operates, but the engine does not start. [1]

Diagnostic trouble codes

  • P0339 (generic): No engine speed signal found in the source case [1]

Possible causes

  • The source case found abnormal resistance in the crankshaft position sensor power supply wire; replacing the sensor did not resolve the problem. [1]

Checks

  • Verify the reported code and starting symptoms, and check the sensor power supply, ground and wiring harness to the engine ECU. [1]

What to do

  • Repair the power supply wiring confirmed to be abnormal and recheck; repairing the wiring resolved the fault in the source case. [1]

Applicability and limits

  • Only applies to MG MG3; the source explicitly specifies model year 2012; only the vehicle described in case 3 is covered. Abnormal power supply wire resistance is the conclusion of that case and does not represent all P0339 cases. This case does not represent all models of the same brand; do not decide to replace parts based solely on the fault code. No vehicle model is currently linked. Scope: unknown [1]
