Pressure Test
A WARNING:When releasing the system
pressure, cover the expansion tank cap
with a thick cloth to prevent the possibility
of coolant scalding, Failure to follow this
instruction may result in personal injury.
1. Remove the coolant expansion tank cap.
2.

4. Observe the
cooling system pressure tester
gauge reading for
approximately two minutes.
The pressure
should not drop during this time.
If the system holds pressure, proceed to step
6.
If the system does not hold pressure, check
it
thoroughly for coolant leaks.
5. Check the engine for coolant leaks. Drain the
cooling system, repair any coolant leaks found
and
fill and bleed the cooling system as
necessary.

Coolant Expansion Tank Cap Pressure Test
A WARNING:When releasing the system
pressure, cover the expansion tank cap
with a thick cloth to prevent the possibility
of coolant scalding, Failure to follow this
instruction may result in personal injury.
1. Remove the coolant expansion tank cap.
2. Use water to clean the area of the rubber seal
and pressure relief valve. Install the pressure
tester and adapter and immerse the
coolant
expansion tank cap in water .
N0TE:lf the plunger of the pump is depressed too
quickly, an erroneous pressure reading will result. l-
3. Slowly depress the plunger of the pressure test
pump until the pressure gauge reading stops
increasing, and note the highest pressure
reading obtained.
4.
Release pressure by turning the pressure relief
screw counterclockwise. Tighten the pressure
relief screw and repeat step 3 at least twice to
make sure the pressure test reading is
repeatable and within acceptable gauge reading
limits of the coolant expansion tank cap.
5.
If the pressure test gauge readings are not
within the
acceptable gauge reading limits,
INSTALL a new coolant expansion tank cap.
6. Recheck the system by repeating steps 3 and
4 at least twice.
Thermostat Test
Radiator Leak Test, Removed From Vehicle
A CAUTI0N:Radiator internal pressure must
not exceed
130 kpa (20 psi) or damage may
result.
1. Connect the WDS to the data link connector
(DLC).
2. Using the WDS
datalogger function, SELECT
the
following sensors (as applicable to the
application):
IAT - intake air temperature (IAT) sensor
ECT
- engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensort
CHT - cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensori
LOAD - engine load
VSS - vehicle speed sensor (VSS)

303-03A-17 Duratec-1 6V (Sigma)/lm6L Duratec-1 6V (Sigma) 303-03A-17
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
RPM - engine speed
i DSRPM - desired engine speed
The IAT sensor output is useful if the engine being
tested is cold or after an over-night cold soak. The
ECT sensor or CHT sensor and the IAT sensor
should either indicate the same value or be within
1 to 2 degrees Celsius of each other.
The ECT sensor output is important to display as
it indicates the engine warm-up and opening
temperature for the thermostat. It will initially
indicate a slightly higher reading just before the
thermostat opens and then drops back before
settling to a near flat line output (see graphic
below).
Item Description
I A I Thermostat opens I
B Thermostat settles into a cyclic open and
I I closure pattern
A CAUTI0N:lf the ECT sensor output reaches
the
120°C default line under normal cooling
system pressure, internal damage may be
caused to the engine and a diagnostic
trouble code (DTC) will be set in the PCM.
The test should be stopped and the cause
located and corrected. If the cooling
system does not pressurize, the coolant
will boil at
100°C which may also damage
the engine. CARRY OUT the Coolant
Expansion Tank Cap Pressure Test
Component Test in this section.
If the WDS only allows the ECT sensor to be
displayed in volts, refer to the following table for
corresponding Celsius values:
Volts
OCelsius
The CHT sensor output is useful to examine the
cylinder head temperature rise during the warm-up
cycle and later during the normal light throttle cruise
test. This sensor output may vary between vehicles
with manual transmission and vehicles with
automatic transmission and should be used for
reference only.
Volts
0.78
0.60
0.46
0.35
0.27
The
LOAD display is used for reference as it is
necessary to maintain a stable load line during the
test. It is necessary to carry out the test under
normal light throttle cruise driving conditions and
average loads, typically
40% to 70% of the load
value.
OCelsius
80
90
100
11 0

The VSS output is used for reference but can help
to identify misfires and sensors which fail during
the warm-up cycle.
The RPM display indicates the engine speed and can be compared with the DSRPM.
The DSRPM is the desired or calculated idle speed
which the PCM commands the engine to reach. If
the thermostat opens too early (before the correct
opening temperature has been reached), the
engine will not reach this value.
When using the WDS in data logger mode, the
signals recorded should remain within the
DEFAULT values set by the WDS.
3m AWARNING:M~~~ sure that the WDS is
placed in the vehicle so that it does not
interfere with the safe operation of the
vehicle. Do not place the WDS in the
deployment path of any air bag. Failure to
follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
N0TE:The road test is best carried out with the
aid of another technician in the vehicle to enable
the vehicle to be driven safely while the sensor
outputs are monitored within datalogger. If there
is only one technician available, the WDS can be
set up (using the
recordlcapture mode camera
icon) before leaving the workshop to record a
16
km (1 0 mile) test.
