DTC Logic
DTC DETECTION LOGIC
| DTC No. | CONSULT screen terms (Trouble diagnosis content) | DTC detecting condition | Possible cause |
| P0197 | EOT SEN/CIRC (Engine oil temperature sensor circuit low) | An excessively low voltage from the engine oil temperature sensor is sent to ECM. |
|
| P0198 | EOT SEN/CIRC (Engine oil temperature sensor circuit high) | An excessively high voltage from the engine oil temperature sensor is sent to ECM. |
DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1.PRECONDITIONING
If DTC Confirmation Procedure has been previously conducted, always perform the following procedure before conducting the next test.
- Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
- Turn ignition switch ON.
- Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
>> GO TO 2.
2.PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
- Start engine and wait at least 5 seconds.
- Check 1st trip DTC.
Is 1st trip DTC detected? YES >> Proceed to EC-264, "Diagnosis Procedure".
NO >> INSPECTION END
Diagnosis Procedure
1.CHECK ENGINE OIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR POWER SUPPLY
- Turn ignition switch OFF
- Disconnect engine oil temperature (EOT) sensor harness connector.
- Turn ignition switch ON.
- Check the voltage between EOT sensor harness connector and ground.
Is the inspection result normal? YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK ENGINE OIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT
- Turn ignition switch OFF.
- Disconnect ECM harness connector
- Check the continuity between EOT sensor harness connector and ECM harness connector.
- Also check harness for short to ground.
Is the inspection result normal? YES >> Perform the trouble diagnosis for power supply circuit.
NO >> Repair or replace error-detected parts.
3.CHECK EOT SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT
- Turn ignition switch OFF.
- Disconnect ECM harness connector.
- Check the continuity between EOT sensor harness connector and ECM harness connector.
- Also check harness for short to power.
Is the inspection result normal? YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Repair or replace error-detected parts.
4.CHECK ENGINE OIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR
Check the engine oil temperature sensor. Refer to EC-265, "Component Inspection (EOT Sensor)".
Is the inspection result normal? YES >> Check intermittent incident. Refer to GI-39, "Intermittent Incident".
NO >> Replace engine oil temperature sensor. Refer to EM-94, "Exploded View".
Component Inspection (EOT Sensor)
1.CHECK ENGINE OIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR
- Turn ignition switch OFF.
- Disconnect engine oil temperature sensor harness connector
- Remove engine oil temperature sensor.
- Check resistance between engine oil temperature sensor terminals by heating with hot water as shown in the figure.
Is the inspection result normal? YES >> INSPECTION END
NO >> Replace engine oil temperature sensor. Refer to EM-94, "Exploded View".
