Diagnostic Aids

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Lexus GX 470. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. After confirming DTC P0115, use scan tool to access CURRENT DATA to confirm engine coolant temperature. If temperature displayed on scan tool is -40°F (-40°C), ECT sensor circuit may be open. If temperature displayed on scan tool is 284°F (140°C) or more, ECT sensor circuit may be shorted.
  2. If DTCs P0110, P0115, P0120, P0450 and P1120 are output together, check ground circuit E2. Repair as necessary. See ENGINE PERFORMANCE in SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS article in ELECTRICAL.
  3. Read freeze frame data using hand-held tester or OBD-II scan tool, as freeze frame data records engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, this is useful for determining whether vehicle was running or stopped, engine was warmed up or not, or air-fuel ratio was lean or rich at time of malfunction.
