Engine Control System (4HK1) 1A-113
DTC P0116 (Flash Code 23)
Circuit Description
The engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor is
installed to the thermostat housing. The ECT sensor is
a variable resistor and it measures the temperature of
the engine coolant. If the ECM detects that the
difference of engine coolant temperature is smaller
than the calculated range during the predetermined
conditions, this DTC will set. This DTC will only run
once per ignition cycle within the enabling condition.
Condition for Running the DTC
• DTCs P0117, P0118, P0201 - P0204, P0500,
P0502, P0503, P060B, P0697, P1261, P1262,
P2146 and P2149 are not set.
• The battery voltage is between 18 to 32 volts.
• The ignition switch is ON.
• The vehicle runtime is longer than 5 minutes with
the vehicle speed is more than 5km/h (3MPH).
• The engine runtime is longer than 5 minutes with
the engine speed is more than 1400RPM.
• The accumulation fuel injection quantity since
engine start is more than a threshold.
Condition for Setting the DTC
• The ECM detects that the difference of maximum
and minimum engine coolant temperature is less
than 1 to 15 °C (1.8 to 27°F).
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
• The ECM illuminates the MIL on the second
consecutive driving cycle when the diagnostic runs
and fails. Refer to DTC Type Definitions for Action
Taken When the DTC Sets - Type B.
Condition for Clearing the DTC
• Refer to DTC Type Definitions for Condition for
Clearing the MIL/ DTC - Type B.
Diagnostic Aids
• After starting the engine, the ECT should rise
steadily to about 80 to 85°C (176 to 185°F) then
stabilize when the thermostat opens.
• Use the Temperature vs. Resistance table to test
the ECT sensor at various temperature levels to
evaluate the possibility of a skewed sensor. A
skewed sensor could result in poor driveability
concerns.

1. Test the engine cooling system for the
following conditions. Refer to Cooling System
in Section 1C Engine Cooling.
• Engine coolant level
• Engine coolant leakage
2. Repair or replace as necessary.
