id0102t5701700

Outline

System malfunction location

ECT sensor circuit high input

Detection condition

•  With the following conditions met, the output voltage of the ECT sensor exceeds 4.91 V for a continuous 2 s.

―  Battery voltage: 8—16 V

―  Ignition is switched ON (engine off or on)

Fail-safe

•  PCM restricts engine torque.

•  Limits the maximum engine speed.

•  Inhibits the DENOx/DESOx control.

•  Inhibits the diesel particulate filter regeneration control.

•  Inhibits the EGR control.

•  PCM restricts engine-transaxle integration control. (ATX)

•  Inhibits engine-stop by operating the i-stop function.

Possible cause

•  Ambient temperature is abnormally low

•  ECT sensor connector or terminal malfunction

•  PCM connector or terminal malfunction

•  Short to power supply in ECT sensor signal circuit

•  Open circuit in any of the following ECT sensor circuits.

―  Signal circuit

―  Ground circuit

•  ECT sensor malfunction

•  PCM malfunction

Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Results

Action

1

RECORD VEHICLE STATUS WHEN DTC WAS DETECTED TO UTILIZE WITH REPEATABILITY VERIFICATION

•  Record the freeze frame data/snapshot data.

Note

•  Recording can be facilitated using the screen capture function of the PC.

—

Go to the next step.

2

VERIFY RELATED REPAIR INFORMATION OR SERVICE INFORMATION AVAILABILITY

•  Verify related Service Bulletins, on-line repair information, or Service Information availability.

•  Is any related Information available?

Yes

Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available information.

•  If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.

No

Go to the next step.

3

INSPECT ECT SENSOR CONNECTOR FOR MALFUNCTION

•  Inspect the applicable connector and terminal.
(See CONNECTOR INSPECTION.)

•  Are the connector and terminal normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.

4

INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR FOR MALFUNCTION

•  Inspect the applicable connector and terminal.
(See CONNECTOR INSPECTION.)

•  Are the connector and terminal normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.

5

INSPECT ECT SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY

•  Inspect the applicable circuit for a short to power supply.
(See CIRCUIT INSPECTION.)

•  Is the circuit normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.

6

INSPECT ECT SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT AND GROUND CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT

•  Inspect the applicable circuit for open circuit.
(See CIRCUIT INSPECTION.)

•  Is the circuit normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.

7

INSPECT ECT SENSOR

•  Reconnect all the disconnected connectors.

•  Inspect the ECT sensor.
(See ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE (ECT) SENSOR INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-D 1.8])

•  Is the ECT sensor normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Replace the ECT sensor, then go to the next step.

(See ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE (ECT) SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-D 1.8])

Repair completion verification 1

VERIFY THAT VEHICLE IS REPAIRED

•  Install/connect the part removed/disconnected during the troubleshooting procedure.

•  Clear the DTC recorded in the memory.
(See CLEARING DTC.)

•  Replicate the vehicle conditions at the time the DTC was detected using the following procedure.

―  Perform the KOEO or KOER self-test.
(See DTC INSPECTION)

•  Perform the DTC inspection for the PCM.
(See DTC INSPECTION.)

•  Is the same Pending DTC present?

Yes

Refer to the controller area network (CAN) malfunction diagnosis flow to inspect for a CAN communication error.

(See CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (CAN) MALFUNCTION DIAGNOSIS FLOW [(E)].)

If the CAN communication is normal, perform the diagnosis from Step 1.

•  If the malfunction recurs, replace the PCM, then go to the next step.
(See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-D 1.8].)

No

Go to the next step.

Repair completion verification 2

VERIFY IF OTHER DTCs DISPLAYED

•  Perform the DTC inspection.
(See DTC INSPECTION.)

•  Are any other DTCs displayed?

Yes

Repair the malfunctioning location according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.

No

DTC troubleshooting completed.
