Hint:
This dtc relates to the thermostat.
Description
This dtc is set when the engine coolant temperature (ect) does not reach 75°c (167°f) despite sufficient engine warm-up time having elapsed.
Monitor description
The ecm estimates the ect based on the starting temperature, engine loads, and engine speeds. The ecm then compares the estimated temperature with the actual ect. When the estimated ect reaches 75°c (167°f), the ecm checks the actual ect. If the actual ect is less than 75°c (167°f), the ecm interprets this as a malfunction in the thermostat or the engine cooling system and sets the dtc.

Inspection procedure
Hint:
Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. 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.
Hint:
If any dtcs other than p0128 are output, troubleshoot those dtcs first.
Standard value: 80 to 84°c (176 to 183°f)
Hint:
In addition to the above check, confirm that the valve is completely closed when the temperature is below the standard.
Throttle / pedal position sensor / switch "A"
Hint:
These dtcs relate to the throttle position (tp) sensor.
Description
The tp sensor is mounted on the throttle body, and detects the opening angle
of the throttle valve. This
sensor is a non-contact type. It uses hall-effect elements in order to yield
accurate signals even in
extrem ...

Test mode check
Hint:
When entering the test mode, the tire pressure
warning ecu sets all the test dtcs first. After
completing the test mode for each inspection item, the
dtcs that are determined normal by the tire pressure
warning ecu will be erased.
