Order of inspection

  1. P0379 Timing Reference High Resolution Signal B No Pulses Medium

    The P0379 code means the computer receives no pulses at all on high resolution timing reference signal B, which it uses to work out engine position precisely. A sensor without power, a cut wire or a failed sensor is the usual reason. The engine usually keeps running on the low resolution signal alone, but less smoothly.
