NOTE:
If DTC P0128 is displayed with DTC P0300, P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304, P0305, P0306, P0307 or P0308,
first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0300, P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304, P0305, P0306, P0307,
P0308. Refer to 

EC-291, "DTC Logic"

.

Engine coolant temperature has not risen enough to open the thermostat even though the engine has run long
enough.
This is due to a leakage in the seal or the thermostat being stuck open.

If it is below 52

°

C (126

°

F), go to next step.

°

C (126

°

F), cool engine down to less than 52

°

C (126

°

F). Then go to next step.

6.

Start engine and drive vehicle for 10 consecutive minutes under the following conditions.

CAUTION:

Always drive vehicle at a safe speed.
NOTE:
If “COOLAN TEMP/S” increases to more than 71

°

C (160

°

F) within 10 minutes, turn ignition switch

OFF because the test result will be OK.

7.

Check 1st trip DTC.

 WITH GST

Follow the procedure “With CONSULT-III” above.

Is 1st trip DTC detected?

YES

>> Proceed to 

EC-227, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

NO

>> INSPECTION END

DTC No.

DTC DETECTION LOGIC

To judge malfunctions, the diagnosis checks that the A/F signal computed by ECM from the A/F sensor 1 sig-
nal fluctuates according to fuel feedback control.

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1.

PRECONDITIONING

1.

Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

2.

Turn ignition switch ON.

3.

Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

TESTING CONDITION:
Before performing the following procedure, confirm that battery voltage is 11 V or more at idle.
