(23 °F) and 45 °C (113 °F). And then GO TO 2.
NO-2 [if it is above 45 °C (113 °F)]>>Cool the engine down to the val ue of “COOLAN TEMP/S” indicates −5 °C
(23 °F) and 45 °C (113 °F). And then GO TO 2.
2.PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE-I
1. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at 10 seconds.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Set the selector lever in N range.
4. Start the engine and let it idle for 20 seconds or more.
5. Check 1st trip DTC.
Is 1st trip DTC detected?
YES >> Proceed to EC-394, "Diagnosis Procedure"
NO >> INSPECTION END
