DTC P0125: Insufficient Coolant Temperature For Closed Loop Fuel Control

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
P0125 - INSUFFICIENT COOLANT TEMPERATURE FOR CLOSED LOOP FUEL CONTROL

Description:  Indicates the engine coolant temperature (ECT) or the cylinder heat temperature (CHT) sensor has not achieved the required temperature level to enter closed loop operating conditions within a specified amount of time after starting the engine.
Possible Causes: 
  • Insufficient warm up time
  • Low engine coolant level
  • Leaking or stuck open thermostat
  • Malfunctioning ECT sensor
  • Malfunctioning CHT sensor
Diagnostic Aids:  Compare the thermostat specification to the actual engine coolant temperature using the engine temperature PID (ECT or CHT). The temperature reading should be similar when the engine is at a normal operating temperature.
Application  Key On Engine Off  Key On Engine Running  Continuous Memory 
Vehicles with only a cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensor - - GO to DL: Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) Sensor STEP DL21.
Vehicles with only an engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor - - GO to DX: Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor STEP DX18.
Vehicles with both a CHT and an ECT sensor - - GO to DX: Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor STEP DX18.
