STEP 8. Check harness connector B-20 at ENGINE-ECU for 
damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 9.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 13.

STEP 9. Check for open circuit between engine coolant 
sensor connector B-104 (terminal No. 2) and ENGINE-ECU 
connector B-20 (terminal No. 12).
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 10.
NO :  Repair it. Then go to Step 13.

STEP 10. Check the engine coolant temperature sensor(On 
Car).
(1) Ensure engine coolant temperature is between 20

° C and 

below 100

° C.

(2) Disconnect the engine coolant temperature sensor 

connector B-104.

(3) Check the resistance between terminal No. 1 & No. 2 of the 

sensor.

Q: Is the measured resistance between 186

Ω and 2.4 kΩ?

YES : Go to Step 11.
NO :  Replace the sensor and go to Step 13.

STEP 11. Check the engine coolant temperature sensor(Off 
Car).
(1) Disconnect the engine coolant temperature sensor 

connector B-104.

(2) Remove the engine coolant temperature sensor.

(3) With the temperature sensing portion of engine coolant 

temperature sensor immersed in hot water, measure 
resistance.Refer to Service Specifications 

13A-677

(4) Apply 3M

™ AAD part number 8731 or equivalent on the 

screw section of the engine coolant temperature sensor.

(5) Install the engine coolant temperature sensor, and tighten 

to the specified torque.

Tightening torque: 21 

± 3 N⋅m 

Q: Is the measured resistance at the standard value?

YES : Go to Step 12.
NO :  Replace the engine coolant sensor. Then go to Step 

13.

STEP 12. Using diagnostic tool , check data list item 6: 
Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to diagnostic tool , always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting diagnostic tool .
(1) Connect diagnostic tool  to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Set diagnostic tool  to the data reading mode for item 6, 

Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor.

• The engine coolant temperature and temperature 

shown with the diagnostic tool should approximately 
match.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

Q: Is the sensor operating properly?

YES : The inspection is complete.
NO :  Then go to Step 13.

STEP 13. Test the EOBD drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to 

Diagnostic Function 

− EOBD Drive Cycle − 

P.13A-11

.

(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).

Q: Is DTC P0118 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO :  The inspection is complete.
