What does code P1324 mean?

Q: What does code P1324 mean?

Crank RPM Too Low. P1324 on a Chrysler vehicle means the powertrain control module (PCM) has detected that the crankshaft position sensor signal indicates engine speed is lower than the minimum expected threshold for the current operating conditions. This typically occurs during cranking or at idle when the PCM compares the actual crank RPM to a calibrated minimum and finds it too low, often pointing to a mechanical or sensor-related issue rather than a simple sensor failure.
