Start engine to normal operating temperature and monitor the "ECT SENSOR" parameter on scantool.
After the engine has started, Check that ECT rises steadly to about 90°C(194°F) and ECT stabilizes when the thermostat opens.
Specification : ECT rises steadly to about 90°C(194°F) and ECT stabilizes when the thermostat opens.
Temperature(℃(°F)) | -20(-4°F) | 20(68°F) | 60(140°F) | 90(194°F) |
Resistence(kΩ) | 10.7 | 2.5 | 0.6 | 0.2 |
Voltage(V) | 4.2 | 2.6 | 1.1 | 0.5 |
Is ECT sensor’s signal near the specified value?
YES
Fault is intermittent caused by poor contact in the sensor’s and/or ECM’s connector.
Fault was repaired and ECM memory was not cleared.
If the problem works out, Go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
NO
Go to "Inspection & Repair" procedure.
