Q: What does code P1372 mean?

Crankshaft Position Sensor Circuit Performance. P1372 on Chrysler vehicles means the powertrain control module (PCM) has detected that the crankshaft position sensor signal is present but does not meet expected performance criteria during engine operation. The PCM monitors the crank sensor signal for consistency with camshaft position and expected engine speed, and it sets this code when the signal is erratic, intermittent, or out of phase without necessarily failing completely.
