Monitor description
Engine coolant temperature (ect) sensor cold start monitor
When a cold engine start is performed and then the engine is warmed up, if the ect sensor value does not change, it is determined that a malfunction has occurred. If this is detected in 2 consecutive driving cycles, the mil is illuminated and a dtc is set.
Ect sensor soak monitor
After a warmed up engine is started, if the ect sensor value does not change when the engine is stopped and then the next cold engine start is performed, it is determined that a malfunction has occurred. If this is detected in 2 consecutive driving cycles, the mil is illuminated and a dtc is set.

Inspection procedure
Hint:
Standard value: 80°c to 84°c (176°f to 183°f)
Hint:
In addition to the above check, confirm that the valve is completely closed when the temperature is below the standard.
Symptom simulation
Hint:
The most difficult case in troubleshooting is when no
problem symptoms occur. In such a case, a thorough
problem analysis must be carried out. A simulation of the
same or similar conditions and environment in which the
problem occurred in the customer's vehicle should be
carried out. No ...
