OBD System Description - Thermostat Monitor

System Description / Monitoring Procedure
The engine coolant temperature is estimated to model accumulated combustion heat value since engine start (based on intake mass air flow) and radiation heat value (radiation from engine, radiation when fuel shut-off, etc.). When estimated temperature reaches the specified
temperature and the measured temperature is lower than criteria, the ECM will set DTC.
