DTC P011E: ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE 1/AMBIENT AIR TEMPERATURE CORRELATION

Description:  The DTC indicates that the engine coolant temperature (ECT) and ambient air temperature (AAT) sensor readings differ by greater than a calibrated value.
Possible Causes: 
  • Biased ECT or AAT sensor
  • Damaged ECT or AAT sensor
  • Damaged intake air temperature (IAT) sensor
Diagnostic Aids:  Make sure the ECT, AAT and IAT sensor readings are within 18°C (32.4°F) of each other after 6 to 8 hours at a stabilized ambient temperature and the vehicle has not been in direct sunlight.
