METER / GAUGE SYSTEM Engine Coolant Temperature Receiver Gauge Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

In this circuit, the combination meter assembly receives engine coolant temperature signals from the power management control ECU via the CAN communication system. The combination meter assembly displays the engine coolant temperature that is calculated based on the data received from the power management control ECU.

Tech Tips


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

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


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the GTS on.

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

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


      Body Electrical > Combination Meter > Active Test
      Tester Display Measurement Item Control Range Diagnostic Note
      Water Temperature Meter Operation Engine coolant temperature receiver gauge OFF, LOW, NORMAL, HIGH -

      Body Electrical > Combination Meter > Active Test
      Tester Display
      Water Temperature Meter Operation
      OK
      Engine coolant temperature receiver gauge indication is normal.

  4. READ VALUE USING GTS (COOLANT TEMPERATURE)


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the GTS on.

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

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


      Body Electrical > Combination Meter > Data List
      Tester Display Measurement Item Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Coolant Temperature Engine coolant temperature Min.: 0°C (0°F), Max.: 127.5°C (261.5°F) 75 to 100 °C (167 to 212°F): After warming up engine -

      Body Electrical > Combination Meter > Data List
      Tester Display
      Coolant Temperature
      OK
      Engine coolant temperature displayed on the GTS is almost the same as the engine coolant temperature receiver gauge indication.

      Tech Tips


      • When the Data List values and engine coolant temperature receiver gauge values match, a signal output error of the ECM or an internal malfunction of the combination meter assembly is suspected.

      • When the Data List values and engine coolant temperature receiver gauge values do not match, an internal malfunction of the combination meter assembly is suspected.

      Powertrain > Hybrid Control > Trouble Codes
      Result
      Result Proceed to
      Hybrid control system DTCs are not output. A

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


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Enter the following menus:


      1. for Hybrid: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Data List.

      2. for Combination Meter: Body Electrical / Combination Meter / Data List.

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


      1. Hybrid Control


        Powertrain > Hybrid Control > Data List
        Tester Display Measurement Item Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
        Engine Coolant Temp Engine coolant temperature Min.: -40°C (-40°F), Max.: 215°C (419°F)

      Result Proceed to
      Data List values of the ECUs match. A
      Data List values of the ECUs do not match. B

      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.
