DTC Information And Inspection: DTC Detecting Condition

Item Detecting Condition Possible Cause
DTC Strategy Case 1
  • Signal stuck low
  1. Poor connector connection
  2. Faulty ECT sensor circuit
  3. Faulty ECT sensor
Case 2
  • Signal stuck high
Case 3
  • Excessive high temperature check
Enable Condition Case 1
  • IAT at engine start more than -10°C (14°F)
  • ECT at engine start more than 56°C (132.8°F)
  • Battery voltage is between 11V and 16V
  • Ambient air temperature model higher than -10°C (14°F)
  • Operates over 250 - 500 seconds in partial load condition (engine speed over 1200 RPM, vehicle speed over 35 km/h, engine load over 4%) (depending on coolant temperature)
  • Operates over 200 - 400 seconds under low load condition (fuel shut-off state or idling state with vehicle speed less than 20 km/h) (depending on coolant temperature)
Case 2
  • Battery voltage is between 11V and 16V
  • ECT at engine start more than 35°C (95°F)
Case 3
  • Battery voltage is between 11V and 16V
  • Engine stop time is more than 360 minutes
  • After engine start, engine coolant and engine oil temperature decreases below 2.5°C (36.5°F) for 15 seconds over 25 km/h (15.53 MPH) in vehicle speed
  • After engine start, the ambient air temperature decreases below 2.0°C (35.6°F) for 15 seconds over 25 km/h (15.53 MPH) in vehicle speed
  • After engine start, the intake air temperature decreases below 4.0°C (39.2°F) for 15 seconds over 25 km/h (15.53 MPH) in vehicle speed
  • Engine coolant temperature is above -30°C (-22°F)
Threshold Value Case 1
  • ECT variation since engine start less than 2.25°C (36.05°F)
Case 2
  • Difference between the coolant temperature sensor model value and the measured temperature sensor is 5°C (46.4°F)
Case 3
  • Difference between the maximum value of the engine coolant temperature 1 sensor and the maximum value of the ambient air/intake air/engine coolant temperature 2/oil temperature is more than 20°C (68°F) and is detected more than 3 times
Diagnostic Time Case 1, 2
  • 1 second
Case 3
  • 0.4 seconds
MIL ON Condition
  • 2 driving cycles
