   OK

   Needle indication is normal.

NG → REPLACE COMBINATION METER 

OK: Go to next step 

1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
3. Turn the tester ON.
4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List.
5. Check the values by referring to the values in the table below.
   ENGINE AND ECT (2GR-FSE):
   
   

   Tester Display	Measurement Item/Range	Normal Condition	Diagnostic Note
   Coolant Temp	Engine coolant temperature/Min.: -40°C (-40°F), Max.: 140°C (284°F)	After warming up: 80 to 105°C (176 to 221°F)	-

   OK

   Engine coolant temperature value displayed on the tester is almost the same as actual engine coolant temperature.

NG → See step   7 

OK → REPLACE COMBINATION METER
