2006 DODGE RAM SRT-10 air condition

When Monitored:
With the engine running and no MAP Sensor or TP Sensor DTC’s set. Engine speed must be greater than
1600 RPM.
Set Condition:
The PCM performs two separate tests. When the manifold vacuum is high, the TP Sensor should be low.
When the manifold vacuum is low, the TP Sensor signal should be high. If the proper TP Sensor voltage is not
detected when the two conditions are met, a DTC will be set after 4 seconds.

Theory of Operation
The engine coolant temperature sensor is a negative temperature coefficient thermistor-type sensor whose resis-
tance varies inversely with temperature. At cold temperatures the sensorresistance is high so the voltage is high.
As the coolant temperature increases the resistance decreases and the voltage becomes low. The INSUFFICIENT
COOLANT TEMP FOR CLOSED-LOOP FUEL CONTROL determines if the engine coolant temperature will reach
theclosedloopfuelingcontroltemperaturelimitinaregulatedtimeafterstart.
When Monitored:
With battery voltage greater than 10.4 volts and after engine is started.
Set Condition:
The engine temperature does not go above -10°C (15°F). Failure time depends on start-up coolant tempera-
ture and ambient temperature. (i.e. 2 minutes for a start temp of -10°C (15°F) or up to 10 minutes for a vehicle
with a start-up temp of -28°C (5°F). Two Trip Fault. Three good trips to turnoff the MIL.

Diagnostic Test
1.CHECKING COOLANT LEVEL AND CONDITION
Ignition on, engine not running.
With a scan tool, read DTCs.
NOTE: If an Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) DTC is set along with this code, diagnose the ECT DTC first.
NOTE: Inspect the ECT terminals and related PCM terminals. Make sure the terminals are free from corro-
sion and damage.
NOTE: The best way to diagnose this DTC is to allow the vehicle to sit overnight outside in order to have
a totally cold soaked engine.
NOTE: Extremely cold outside ambient temperatures may have caused this DTCtoset.
WARNING: Never open the cooling system when the engine is hot. The system isunder pressure. Extreme
burns or scalding may result. Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal injury or death.
Allow the engine to cool before opening the cooling system.
Inspect the coolant system for proper level and condition.
Is the coolant level and condition OK?
