ENGINE OVERHEAT












1. CHECK THE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR.
1. Set the starter switch to "LOCK".
2. Disconnect the connector of coolant temperature sensor.
3. Measure the resistance between terminals.

HINT: Measure the resistance under any of the following conditions.

Standard:
2.45 kohms at 20 °C {68 °F}
1.15 kohms at 40 °C {104 °F}
584 ohms at 60 °C {140 °F}
318 ohms at 80 °C {176 °F}







HINT: This code will be displayed when the coolant temperature sensor operates normally and coolant temperature ascends over 115�C {239�F}. Also, while the DTC is being detected, Max. volume of fuel injection will be limited and will return back to normal control volume when it descends less than 80 °C {176 °F}.
