Engine Goolant Temperature (ECTI Sensor
The scan tool indicates Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0116: A range/performance problem in the Engine
Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor circuit.
The ECT Sensor is a temperature dependant resistor (thermistor). The resistance of the thermistor decreases as the engine
coolant temperature increases as shown below
RESISTANCEtk0l
NOTE: lf DTC P0117 and/or P0118 are stored at the same
bleshoot DTC P0116.
Possible Cause
a ECT sensor deterioration
. Malfunction in the thermostat and cooling system
