Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
IMPORTANT: Fuel temperature overheating may be cause by a fuel heater element that is stuck on. Refer to Fuel Heater Always On .
  1. With ignition ON and the engine OFF, observe the Fuel Temperature and ECT Temperature parameters with a scan tool.
    • If the temperatures do not closely match each other when the engine has cold soaked overnight, test for a skewed fuel temperature sensor. Refer to Component Testing .
  2. Inspect for debris or damage to the cooling fins of the fuel cooler.
    • If a damaged fuel cooler was found, repair or replace the cooler.
