NO.23 COOLING SYSTEM CONCERNS-RUNS COLD [SKYACTIV-D 2.2]

id0103g1899000

23	COOLING SYSTEM CONCERNS-RUNS COLD
DESCRIPTION	•  Engine does not reach normal operating temperature.
POSSIBLE CAUSE	•  PCM DTC is stored. •  Erratic signal to PCM ―  ECT sensor or related circuit malfunction •  Fan control module No.1 malfunction •  Fan control module No.2 malfunction •  Cooling system malfunction ―  Thermostat malfunction

Diagnostic Procedure

STEP	INSPECTION	RESULTS	ACTION
1	VERIFY PCM DTC •  Retrieve PCM DTCs using the M-MDS. (See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC TEST [PCM (SKYACTIV-D 2.2)].) •  Are any DTCs present?	Yes	Go to the applicable DTC inspection. (See DTC TABLE [PCM (SKYACTIV-D 2.2)].)
		No	Go to the next step.
2	VERIFY CURRENT INPUT SIGNAL STATUS Caution •  While performing this step, always operate the vehicle in a safe and lawful manner. •  When the M-MDS is used to observe monitor system status while driving, be sure to have another technician with you, or record the data in the M-MDS using the PID/DATA MONITOR AND RECORD capturing function and inspect later. •  Access the following PID using the M-MDS: (See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC TEST [PCM (SKYACTIV-D 2.2)].) ―  ECT •  Does the PID indicate the correct value under the trouble condition? (See PCM INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-D 2.2].)	Yes	Inspect the related sensor and circuit. •  If there is any malfunction: ―  Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results, then go to Step 7. •  If there is no malfunction: ―  Go to the next step.
		No	Go to the next step.
3	INSPECT FAN CONTROL MODULE NO.1 •  Inspect the fan control module No.1. (See FAN CONTROL MODULE INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-D 2.2].) •  Is the fan control module No.1 normal?	Yes	Go to the next step.
		No	Replace the fan control module No.1, then go to Step 7. (See COOLING FAN MOTOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-D 2.2].)
4	INSPECT FAN CONTROL MODULE NO.2 •  Inspect the fan control module No.2. (See FAN CONTROL MODULE INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-D 2.2].) •  Is the fan control module No.2 normal?	Yes	Go to the next step.
		No	Replace the fan control module No.2, then go to Step 7. (See COOLING FAN MOTOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-D 2.2].)
5	DETERMINE IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS THERMOSTAT OR OTHER •  Verify the radiator hose tension. Warning •  To prevent burns, use a cloth with your hand to verify the tension of the radiator hose. •  After the engine warms up, does the engine coolant circulate to the radiator hose?	Yes	Go to Step 7.
		No	Go to the next step.
6	INSPECT THERMOSTAT •  Inspect the thermostat. (See THERMOSTAT INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-D 2.2].) •  Is the thermostat normal?	Yes	Go to the next step.
		No	Replace the thermostat, then go to the next step. (See THERMOSTAT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-D 2.2].)
7	Verify the test results. •  If normal, return to the diagnostic index to service any additional symptoms. (See SYMPTOM DIAGNOSTIC INDEX [SKYACTIV-D 2.2].) •  If a malfunction remains, inspect the related Service Information and perform the repair or diagnosis. ―  If the vehicle is repaired, troubleshooting is completed. ―  If the vehicle is not repaired or additional diagnostic information is not available, replace the PCM. (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-D 2.2].)
