DTC DETECTION LOGIC
NOTE:
-If DTC P1217 is displayed with DTC UXXXX, perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC UXXXX.
-If DTC P1217 is displayed with DTC P0607, perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0607. Refer to
"DTC Logic" For USA and Canada.
-If DTC P1217 is displayed with DTC P0527, perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0527. Refer to
"DTC Logic" For USA and Canada.
If the cooling fan or any of other components in the cooling system has a malfunction, engine coolant temperature increases.
When the engine coolant temperature reaches an abnormally high temperature condition, a malfunction is indicated.
CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, always replace the coolant. Refer to "Draining" Draining Engine Coolant and "Refilling" Refilling Engine Coolant. Also, replace the engine oil. Refer to "Draining" Draining and "Refilling" Refilling.
1.Fill radiator with coolant up to specified level with a filling speed of 2 liters per minute. Always use coolant with the proper mixture ratio.
2.After refilling coolant, run engine to ensure that no water-flow noise is emitted.
DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1. PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK
Perform component function check. Refer to "Component Function Check" .
NOTE:
Use component function check to check the overall function of the cooling fan. During this check, a DTC might not be confirmed.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- INSPECTION END
NO- Go to "Diagnosis Procedure" .
Component Function Check
1. PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK-I
WARNING:
Never remove the reservoir tank cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could be caused by high pressure fluid escaping from the radiator.
Wrap a thick cloth around cap. Carefully remove the cap by turning it a quarter turn to allow built-up pressure to escape. Then turn the cap all the way off.
Check the coolant level in the reservoir tank and radiator.
Allow engine to cool before checking coolant level.
Is the coolant level in the reservoir tank and/or radiator below the proper range?
YES- Proceed to "Diagnosis Procedure" .
NO- GO TO 2.
2. PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK-II
Confirm whether customer filled the coolant or not.
Did customer fill the coolant?
YES- Proceed to "Diagnosis Procedure" .
NO- GO TO 3.
3. PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK-III
WITH CONSULT
1.Start the engine.
2.Perform "FAN DUTY CONTROL" in "ACTIVE TEST" mode with CONSULT.
3.Check that cooling fan speed varies according to the percentage.
NOTE:
Fan speed changes as the percentage changes.
WITHOUT CONSULT
1.Start the engine.
2.Perform IPDM E/R auto active test. Refer to "Diagnosis Description" Diagnosis Description.
3.Check that cooling fan speed increase.
NOTE:
Speed changes gradually when performing the auto active test.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- INSPECTION END
NO- Proceed to "Diagnosis Procedure" .
Diagnosis Procedure
1. CHECK COOLING FAN OPERATION
WITH CONSULT
1.Start the engine.
2.Perform "FAN DUTY CONTROL" in "ACTIVE TEST" mode with CONSULT.
3.Check that cooling fan speed varies according to the percentage.
NOTE:
Speed changes gradually as the percentage changes.
WITHOUT CONSULT
1.Start the engine.
2.Perform IPDM E/R auto active test and check cooling fan operation, refer to "Diagnosis Description" Diagnosis Description.
3.Check that cooling fan speed increase.
NOTE:
Speed changes gradually when performing the auto active test.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- GO TO 2.
NO- Proceed to "Diagnosis Procedure" For USA and Canada.
2. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT LEAKAGE-I
Check cooling system for leakage. Refer to "Inspection" Inspection.
Is leakage detected?
YES- GO TO 3.
NO- GO TO 4.
3. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT LEAKAGE-II
Check the following for leakage.
- Hose
- Radiator
- Water pump
- Repair or replace malfunctioning part.
4. CHECK RESERVOIR TANK CAP
Check reservoir tank cap. Refer to "RESERVOIR TANK CAP : Inspection" Service and Repair.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- GO TO 5.
NO- Replace reservoir tank cap.
5. CHECK THERMOSTAT
Check thermostat. Refer to "Inspection" Inspection.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- GO TO 6.
NO- Replace thermostat. Refer to "Removal and Installation" Removal and Installation.
6. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR
Refer to "Component Inspection (Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor)" For USA and Canada.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- GO TO 7.
NO- Replace engine coolant temperature sensor. Refer to "Exploded View" Exploded View.
7. CHECK MAIN 12 CAUSES
If the cause cannot be isolated, check the "Trouble shooting Chart" Testing and Inspection.
