DTC P0116: ECT Sensor Range/Performance
Problem
NOTE: lf DTC P0117 and/or P0118 are stored at the
same time as DTC P0116, troubleshoot those DTCS first,
then recheck for DTC P0116,
1. Stanthe engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with
no load {in neutral) until the radiator fan comes on,
then let it idle.
2. Check the ECT with the scan tool.

DTC P0128 can occasionally set when the hood is
opened while the engine is running.
1. Check the engine coolant level
Is the engine coolant level low?
VES Refill the engine coolant. lf necessary, repair
the coolant leakage.l

YES Checkthe rad iato r fan circuit (see page 10-
14), the radiator fan switch circuit (Short) (see page
10-'16), and the radiator fan switch (see page 10-17).
Also, inspect the ECT and IAT circuits and terminal
connections. lf the circuits, the switch, and the
connections are OK, update the ECI\4 if it does not
have the latest software. or substitute a known-good ECM, then recheck (see page 1 1-6). lf the
symptom/indication goes away with a known-good
ECM, replace the original ECM.I
