DTC Information: DTC Detecting Condition

Item Detecting Condition Possible Cause
DTC Strategy
  • Determines if the oil temperature value is rational, compared to coolant and intake air temperature
  • Faulty OTS
Case 1 Enable Condition
  • Battery voltage is between 6V and 16V
  • Difference between highest and lowest modeled oil temperature is greater than 30 to 100°C (86 to 212°F)
  • Engine coolant temperature or modeled engine coolant temperature is greater than 90°C (194°F)
  • Engine coolant temperature at engine start is lower than 53.25°C (127.85°F)
Threshold Value
  • Difference between highest and lowest measured oil temperature is lower than 2 to 35°C (35.6 to 95°F)
  • Sensor signal is stuck in range
Diagnostic Time
  • 0 to 13 minutes (Depending on start temperature)
Case 2 Enable Condition
  • Battery voltage is between 6V and 16V
  • Engine coolant temperature at engine start is less than 40°C (104°F)
  • Modeled oil temperature is greater than 70°C (158°F)
Threshold Value
  • Engine oil temperature is lower than 20°C (68°F)
  • Sensor signal is implausibly low
Diagnostic Time
  • 15s
Case 3 Enable Condition
  • Battery voltage is between 6V and 16V
  • Engine coolant temperature is lower than 70°C (158°F)
Threshold Value
  • Engine oil temperature is greater than 100°C (212°F)
  • Sensor signal is implausibly high
Diagnostic Time
  • 15s
Case 4 Enable Condition
  • Battery voltage is between 11V and 16V
  • Engine stop time is more than 480m
  • ECT decrease in 15s after engine start is less than 2°C (35.6°F)
Threshold Value
  • Deviation between EOT and 3 other temperature sensors (ECT, AAT, IAT) is greater than 20°C (68°F)
  • Deviation among other temperature sensors (ECT, AAT, IAT) is lower than 20°C (68°F)
Diagnostic Time
  • Immediately
MIL ON Condition
  • 2 driving cycles
