SFI SYSTEM(w/ Canister Pump Module), Diagnostic DTC:P06AB11, P06AB15

DTC Code DTC Name
P06AB11 Control Module Internal Temperature Sensor "B" Circuit Short to Ground
P06AB15 Control Module Internal Temperature Sensor "B" Circuit Short to Battery or Open

DESCRIPTION

The ECM has a built-in internal temperature sensor which detects the internal temperature of the ECM. The resistance of the thermistor within the ECM internal temperature sensor changes according to the internal temperature of the ECM. The resistance of the thermistor increases as the ECM internal temperature decreases and decreases as the ECM internal temperature increases.

DTC No. Detection Item DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area MIL Memory Note
P06AB11 Control Module Internal Temperature Sensor "B" Circuit Short to Ground The ECM internal temperature sensor output voltage is less than 0.22 V for 3 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic). ECM Comes on DTC stored SAE Code: P06AD
P06AB15 Control Module Internal Temperature Sensor "B" Circuit Short to Battery or Open The ECM internal temperature sensor output voltage is higher than 4.91 V for 3 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic). ECM Comes on DTC stored SAE Code: P06AE

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM calculates the internal temperature of the ECM based on the output voltage of the ECM internal temperature sensor. If the output voltage of the ECM internal temperature sensor is not within the normal operating range, the ECM will illuminate the MIL and store a DTC. In this case, the ECM internal temperature sensor may be malfunctioning or there may be an open or short in the sensor circuit.

Example:

When the output voltage of the ECM internal temperature sensor is less than 0.22 V, or more than 4.91 V for 3 seconds or more, the ECM illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN


  1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

  2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

  3. Turn the GTS on.

  4. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).

  5. Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.

  6. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

  7. Turn the GTS on.

  8. Wait 5 seconds.

  9. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.

  10. Read the pending DTCs.

    Tech Tips


    • If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.

    • If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.

  11. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.

  12. Input the DTC: P06AB11 or P06AB15.

  13. Check the DTC judgment result.

    GTS Display Description
    NORMAL

    • DTC judgment completed

    • System normal
    ABNORMAL

    • DTC judgment completed

    • System abnormal
    INCOMPLETE

    • DTC judgment not completed

    • Perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions

    Tech Tips


    • If the judgment result is NORMAL, the system is normal.

    • If the judgment result is ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Tech Tips

Read Freeze Frame Data using the GTS. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as Freeze Frame Data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, Freeze Frame Data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE


  1. CLEAR DTC


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Clear the DTCs.


      Powertrain > Engine > Clear DTCs

    5. Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.

  2. READ OUTPUT DTC (DTC P06AB11 OR P06AB15)


    1. Drive the vehicle in accordance with the driving pattern described in Confirmation Driving Pattern.

    2. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.

    3. Read the DTCs.
