- If DTC U0100 has been stored, troubleshoot the CAN communication system first.
- If there is an open or short in the engine coolant temperature sensor circuit, an SFI system DTC is output. If output, perform troubleshooting on the SFI system.
- PERFORM ACTIVE TEST BY TECHSTREAM (COOLANT HOT)
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.
- Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Combination Meter / Active Test.
