Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Coolant thermostat (coolant temperature below thermostat regulating temperature)
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.
- Check any other dtcs output (in addition to dtc p0128)
- Connect the intelligent tester to the dlc3.
- Turn the ignition switch on.
- Turn the tester on.
- Select the following menu items: diagnosis / enhanced obd ii / dtc info / current codes.
- Read dtcs.
Hint:
If any dtcs other than p0128 are output, troubleshoot those dtcs first.
- Check cooling system
- Check for defects in the cooling system that might cause the system to be too cold, such as abnormal radiator fan operation or any modifications.
- Inspect thermostat
- Remove the thermostat (see page co-15).
- Measure the valve opening temperature of the thermostat.
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.
- Reinstall the thermostat (see page co-15).
