Faulty Signal. Intermittent Fault
FAULTY SIGNAL. INTERMITTENT FAULTChecking Cables and Terminals
WARNING! Before fault-tracing disconnect Engine Cooling Fan (FC) relay connector A so that the engine cooling fan (FC) will not run. Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) EFI-514 engine cooling fan (FC) low-speed, signal may be stored. After fault-tracing the connector must be reconnected.
- Check engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor and engine control module (ECM) connectors for a loose connection, contact resistance and oxidation.
- Check cable between Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor terminal 1 and engine control module (ECM) #A31 for a short-circuit to another cable.
- If no fault is detected: Try a new engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor.
Then continue with test step below.
Fault-Tracing Information
- For intermittent faults fault-tracing is not followed by a verification because the fault is not present at this moment.
- Do you want to repeat fault-tracing?
Yes:
- Return to Checking Cables and Terminals section above.
No:
Operation done.
