Diagnostic Procedure

STEP INSPECTION ACTION
1 Yes Go to applicable DTC troubleshooting procedure.
(See DTC TABLE [INSTRUMENT CLUSTER] .)
No Go to the next step.
2
  • Cool down the engine.
  • Switch the ignition ON.
  • Verify that the high engine coolant temperature warning light (red) condition.
  • Does the high engine coolant temperature warning light (red) illuminate or flash while 3-30 s  after the engine switch is turned to ON position?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Go to Step 5.
3
  • Start the engine.
  • Monitor PCM PID ECT using the M-MDS.
  • Verify that the low engine coolant temperature indicator light (blue) condition when the ECT monitoring value above 55 °C {131°F} 
  • Does the low engine coolant temperature indicator light (blue) illuminate?
Yes Go to Step 5.
No Go to the next step.
4
  • Monitor the PCM PID ECT using the M-MDS.
  • Is the PID ECT monitoring value for following value?
    • Above 120 °C {248 °F}  when high engine coolant temperature warning light (red) flashes.
    • Above 125 °C {257 °F}  when high engine coolant temperature warning light (red) illuminates.
Yes Troubleshooting is completed. (The system is normal.)
No Go to the next step.
5
  • Do the speedometer and tachometer indicate correct?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Go to Step 7.
6
  • Turn on and off both low engine coolant temperature indicator light (blue)/high engine coolant temperature warning light (red) using M-MDS instrument cluster active command modes.

    (See ACTIVE COMMAND MODES TABLE [INSTRUMENT CLUSTER] .)

  • Do the both low engine coolant temperature indicator light (blue)/high engine coolant temperature warning light (red) turn on and off according to active command modes?
Yes Inspect the ECT sensor.
(See ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE (ECT) SENSOR INSPECTION [MZR 2.5] .)
No Replace the instrument cluster.
(See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
7
  • Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  • Measure the resistance between the DLC-2 terminals F and E.
  • Is the resistance below 60 ohms  ?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Go to Step 9.
8
  • Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  • Inspect the DLC-2 terminals F and E for short to power supply or ground.
  • Is there any malfunction?
Yes Inspect the wiring harness and CAN system-related module.
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.
No Replace the instrument cluster.
9
  • Switch the ignition OFF (LOCK).
  • Inspect the instrument cluster connector terminals for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, and corrosion).
  • Are the terminals normal?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Repair or replace the terminal.
10
  • Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  • Measure the resistance between the instrument cluster connector terminals 2B and 2D.
  • Is the resistance 114-126 ohms  ?
Yes Inspect the wiring harness and CAN system-related module.
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.
