CHECKING MONITOR STATUS
The purpose of the monitor result (mode 06) is to allow
access to the results for on-board diagnostic monitoring tests
of specific components/systems that are not continuously
monitored. Examples are catalyst, evaporative emission
(EVAP) and thermostat.
The monitor result allows the OBD II scan tool to display the
monitor status, test value, minimum test limit and maximum
test limit. These data are displayed after the vehicle has been
driven to run the monitor.
When the test value is not between the minimum test limit
and maximum test limit, the ECM (PCM) interprets this as a
malfunction. When the component is not malfunctioning, if the
difference of the test value and test limit is very small, the
component will malfunction in the near future.
Perform the following instructions to view the monitor status.
Although the Lexus diagnostic tester is used in the following
instructions, it can be checked using a generic OBD II scan
tool. Refer to your scan tool operator's manual for specific
procedures.
1. PERFORM MONITOR DRIVE PATTERN
The monitor results and test values can be checked with
the OBD II scan tool or the intelligent tester. The engine
control module (ECM) monitors the emissions-related
components such as the thermostat, catalyst converter
and evaporative emissions (EVAP), and determines
whether they are functioning normally or not. When
monitoring is finished, the ECM stores the monitor
results and the test values. The monitor result indicates
whether the component is functioning normally or not.
The test value is the value that was used to determine
the monitor result. If the test value is outside of the test
limit (malfunction criterion), the ECM determines the
component is malfunctioning. Some emissions-related
components have multiple test values to determine
monitor result. If one of these test values is outside of the
test limit, the ECM determines the component is
malfunctioning.
(a) Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
(b) Start the engine and turn the tester on.
(c) Clear the DTCs.
(d) Run the vehicle in accordance with the applicable
drive pattern described in READINESS MONITOR
DRIVE PATTERN (See page ES-22). DO NOT turn
the ignition switch off.
NOTICE:
The test results will be lost if the ignition switch
is turned off.

DESCRIPTION
Refer to DTC P0115 (See page ES-133).
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECT sensor is used to monitor the ECT. The ECT sensor has a built-in thermistor with a resistance
that varies according to the temperature of the engine coolant. When the ECT becomes low, the
resistance of the thermistor increases. When the temperature becomes high, the resistance drops. These
variations in the resistance are reflected in the voltage output from the ECT sensor.
The ECM monitors the sensor voltage and uses this value to calculate the ECT. If the sensor voltage
output deviates from the normal operating range, the ECM interprets this deviation as a malfunction in the
ECT sensor and sets the DTC.
Examples:
• Upon starting the engine, the ECT is between 35
C and 60C (95F and 140F). If the ECT remains
within 3
C (5.4F) of the stating temperature after driving for 250 seconds, the DTC is set (2 trip
detection logic).
• Upon starting the engine, the ECT is over 60
C (140F). If the ECT remains within 1C (1.8F) of the
starting temperature after driving for 250 seconds, the DTC is set (6 trip detection logic).

DESCRIPTION
Refer to DTC P0115 (See page ES-133).
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The resistance of the ECT sensor varies in proportion to the actual ECT. The ECM supplies a constant
voltage to the sensor and monitors the signal output voltage of the sensor. The signal voltage output
varies according to the changing resistance of the sensor. After the engine is started, the ECT is
monitored through this signal. If the ECT sensor indicates that the engine is not yet warm enough for
closed-loop fuel control, despite a specified period of time having elapsed since the engine was started,
the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the sensor or cooling system and sets the DTC.
Example:
The ECT is 0
C (32F) at engine start. After 5 minutes running time, the ECT sensor still indicates that the
engine is not warm enough to begin closed-loop fuel (air-fuel ratio feedback) control. The ECM interprets
this as a malfunction in the sensor or cooling system and sets the DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
• If any of DTCs P0115, P0116, P0117 or P0118 are set simultaneously with DTC P0125, the Engine
Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor may have an open or a short circuit. Troubleshoot those DTCs first.
• Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition
information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame
data can be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, whether the engine
was warmed up or not, whether the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the
time of a malfunction.
(a) Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(c) Turn the tester on.
(d) Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS /
ENHANCED OBD II / DTC INFO / CURRENT CODES.
(e) Read the DTCs.

If any DTCs other than P0125 are output, troubleshoot
those DTCs first.
