INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Tip:

If there is an open or short in the engine coolant temperature sensor circuit, the ECM stores the DTCs. Troubleshoot the SFI System or ECD System.

    READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (COOLANT TEMPERATURE)


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    3. Turn the intelligent tester on.

    4. Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Combination Meter / Data List.

    5. Check the values by referring to the table below.

      Table 3. Combination Meter
      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Coolant Temperature Engine coolant temperature/0 to 127.5°C (0 to 261.5°F) After warming up: 80 to 95°C (176 to 203°F)

      • If -40°C (-40°F): Sensor circuit open

      • If 140°C (284°F) or more: Sensor circuit shorted
      OK
      Engine coolant temperature value displayed on the intelligent tester is almost the same as the engine coolant temperature receiver gauge indication.

    6. Record the temperature displayed on the intelligent tester.
