DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

Step Check Yes No
1 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN OIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR AND ECM CONNECTOR. 
  1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
  2. Disconnect the connector from the oil temperature sensor.
  3. Measure the voltage between oil temperature sensor connector and engine ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    (E75) No. 2 (+) - Engine ground (-): 

Is the voltage more than 10 V? Repair the battery short circuit of harness between ECM and oil temperature sensor connector. Go to step 2. 
2 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN OIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR AND ECM CONNECTOR. 
  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
  2. Measure the voltage between oil temperature sensor connector and engine ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    (E75) No. 2 (+) - Engine ground (-): 

Is the voltage more than 10 V? Repair the battery short circuit of harness between ECM and oil temperature sensor connector. Go to step 3. 
3 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN OIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR AND ECM CONNECTOR. 
Measure the voltage between oil temperature sensor connector and engine ground.
Connector & terminal 
(E75) No. 2 (+) - Engine ground (-): 
Is the voltage more than 4 V? Go to step 4.  Repair the harness and connector.
NOTE: In this case, repair the following item:
  • Open circuit of harness between ECM and oil temperature sensor connector
  • Poor contact of oil temperature sensor connector
  • Poor contact in ECM connector
  • Poor contact of coupling connector
4 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN OIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR AND ECM CONNECTOR. 
  1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
  2. Measure the resistance of harness between oil temperature sensor connector and engine ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    (E75) No. 1 - Engine ground: 

Is the resistance less than 5 Ω? Replace the oil temperature sensor. < Ref. to OIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR . > Repair the harness and connector.
NOTE: In this case, repair the following item:
  • Open circuit of harness between ECM and oil temperature sensor connector
  • Poor contact of oil temperature sensor connector
  • Poor contact in ECM connector
  • Poor contact of coupling connector
  • Poor contact of joint connector
