DTC DETECTION LOGIC

NOTE:
-If DTC P1217 is displayed with DTC UXXXX, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC UXXXX.
-If DTC P1217 is displayed with DTC P0607, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0607. P0607.
If the cooling fan or another component in the cooling system malfunctions, engine coolant temperature will rise.
When the engine coolant temperature reaches an abnormally high temperature condition, a malfunction is indicated.






CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, be sure to replace the coolant. Refilling Engine Coolant. Also, replace the engine oil. Refilling.
1.Fill radiator with coolant up to specified level with a filling speed of 2 liters per minute. Be sure to 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. .
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 .


Component Function Check


1. PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK-I


WARNING:
Never remove the radiator 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- Go to .
NO- GO TO 2

2. PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK-II

Confirm whether customer filled the coolant or not.
Did customer fill the coolant?
YES- Go to .
NO- GO TO 3.

3. PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK-III

With CONSULT
1.Turn ignition switch ON.
2.Perform "COOLING FAN" in "ACTIVE TEST" mode with CONSULT and touch "LOW" on the CONSULT
screen.
3.Make sure that cooling fan operates at low speed.
Without CONSULT
1.Start engine and let it idle.
2.Turn air conditioner switch and blower fan switch ON.
3.Make sure that cooling fan operates at low speed.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- GO TO 4.
NO- Go to .

4. PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK-IV

With CONSULT
1.Touch "HI" on the CONSULT screen.
2.Make sure that cooling fan operates at higher speed than low speed.
Without CONSULT
1.Turn ignition switch OFF.
2.Turn air conditioner switch and blower fan switch OFF.
3.Disconnect engine coolant temperature sensor harness connector.
4.Connect 150 ohms resistor to engine coolant temperature sensor harness connector.
5.Restart engine and make sure that cooling fan operates at higher speed than low speed.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- INSPECTION END
NO- Go to .


Diagnosis Procedure


1. CHECK COOLING FAN OPERATION

With CONSULT
1.Turn ignition switch ON.
2.Perform "COOLING FAN" in "ACTIVE TEST" mode with CONSULT.
3.Make sure that cooling fan motor operate at each speed (LOW/HI).
Without CONSULT
1.Perform IPDM E/R auto active test and check cooling fan motor operation. Diagnosis Description.
2.Make sure that cooling fan motor operate at each speed (Low/High).
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- GO TO 2.
NO- Go to Component Tests and General Diagnostics.

2. CHECK COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAK-I

Check cooling system for leak. Inspection.
Is leakage detected?
YES- GO TO 3.
NO- GO TO 4.

3. CHECK COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAK-II

Check the following for leak.
- Hose (Inspection.)
- Radiator (Inspection.)
- Water pump (Inspection.)
- Repair or replace malfunctioning part.

4. CHECK RADIATOR CAP

Check radiator cap. Service and Repair.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- GO TO 5.
NO- Replace radiator cap. Exploded View.

5. CHECK THERMOSTAT

Check thermostat. Removal And Installation.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- GO TO 6.
NO- Replace thermostat. Removal And Installation.

6. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR

P0117.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- GO TO 7.
NO- Replace engine coolant temperature sensor. Exploded View.

7. OVERHEATING CAUSE ANALYSIS

If the cause cannot be isolated, check Symptom Related Diagnostic Procedures.
