DTC P0118 [L3] DETECTION CONDITIONS AND POSSIBLE CAUSES
| DTC P0118 |
ECT sensor circuit high input |
| DETECTION CONDITION |
- The PCM monitors the ECT sensor signal. If the PCM detects the ECT sensor voltage is above 4.58 V for 5s
, the PCM determines that the ECT sensor circuit has malfunction.
Diagnostic support note
- This is a continuous monitor (Engine cooling system).
- MIL illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition during the first drive cycle.
- FREEZE FRAME DATA (Mode 2/Mode 12) is available.
- The DTC is stored in the PCM memory.

| POSSIBLE CAUSE |
- ECT sensor connect or terminal malfunction
- ECT sensor malfunction
- Short to power supply in wiring harness between ECT sensor terminal A and PCM terminal 2AH
- Open circuit in wiring harness between ECT sensor terminal A and PCM terminal 2AH
- Open circuit in wiring harness between ECT sensor terminal B and PCM terminal 2AV
- PCM malfunction
