METER / GAUGE SYSTEM Engine Coolant Temperature Receiver Gauge Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

In this circuit, the combination meter assembly receives engine coolant temperature signals from the ECM using the CAN communication line. The combination meter assembly displays the engine coolant temperature, which is calculated based on the data received from the ECM.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note

When replacing the combination meter assembly, make sure to replace it with a new one. If a combination meter assembly which was installed to another vehicle is used, the information stored in it will not match the information from the vehicle and a DTC may be stored.

  4. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING GTS (WATER TEMPERATURE METER OPERATION)


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Enter the following menus: Body / Combination Meter / Active Test.

    5. According to the display on the GTS, perform the Active Test.

  5. READ VALUE USING GTS (COOLANT TEMPERATURE, COOLANT TEMP)


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Enter the following menus:


      • Body Electrical / Combination Meter / Data List

      • Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List

    5. According to the display on the GTS, read the Data List.

      Tech Tips


      • When the Data List values of the ECUs match, an internal malfunction of the ECM is suspected.

      • When the Data List values of the ECUs do not match, a signal output error of the ECM or an internal malfunction of the combination meter assembly is suspected.
