    DTC P0115 ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE CIRCUIT

    DTC P0117 ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE CIRCUIT


    LOW INPUT

    DTC P0118 ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE CIRCUIT


    HIGH INPUT

    CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
    A thermistor is built in the engine coolant temperature sensor and changes the resistance value according
    to the engine coolant temperature.
    The structure of the sensor and connection to the ECM is the same as those of the intake air temperature
    sensor.
    HINT:
    If the ECM detects the DTC P0115, P0117 or P0118, it operates the fail–safe function in which the engine
    coolant temperature is assumed to be 80 C (176 F).

    HINT:

    ENHANCED OBD II/DATA LIST/ALL” using the hand–held tester or the OBD II scan tool.

    MONITOR DESCRIPTION
    The engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor is used to monitor the engine coolant temperature. The ECT
    sensor has a thermistor that varies its resistance depending on the temperature of the engine coolant. When
    the coolant temperature is low, the resistance in the thermistor increases. When the temperature is high, the
    resistance drops. The variations in resistance are reflected in the voltage output from the sensor. The ECM
    monitors the sensor voltage and uses this value to calculate the engine coolant temperature. When the sen-
    sor output voltage deviates from the normal operating range, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the ECT
    sensor and sets a DTC.
    Example:
    When the ECM calculates that the ECT is –40C (–40F), or more than 140C (284F), and if either the
    condition continues for 0.5 sec or more, the ECM will set a DTC.
