Description
The engine coolant temperature sensor is used to detect the
engine coolant temperature. The sensor modifies a voltage sig-
nal from the ECM. The modified signal returns to the ECM as the
engine coolant temperature input. The sensor uses a thermistor
which is sensitive to the change in temperature. The electrical
resistance of the thermistor decreases as temperature
increases.

*: These data are reference values and measured between ECM terminal 19

CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/
output voltage. Doing so may damage the ECM's transistor.

DTC 0103 COOLANT TEMP SENYD25DDTi
Diagnostic Procedure (Cont'd)
EC-3483

Description
The vehicle speed sensor is installed in the transaxle. It contains
a pulse generator which provides a vehicle speed signal to the
speedometer. The speedometer then sends a signal to the ECM.
ECM Terminals and Reference Value
Specification data are reference values and are measured between each terminal and ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output voltage. Doing so may damage the
ECM's transistor. Use a ground other than ECM terminals, such as the ground.

Overall Function Check
Use this procedure to check the overall function of the vehicle
speed sensor circuit. During this check, a DTC might not be
confirmed.
WITH CONSULT-II
1) Lift up the vehicle.
2) Start engine.
3) Read vehicle speed sensor signal in ªDATA MONITORº
mode with CONSULT-II.
The vehicle speed on CONSULT-II should be able to
exceed 10 km/h (6 MPH) when rotating wheels with suit-
able gear position.
4) If NG, go to ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-3489.
WITHOUT CONSULT-II
1) Lift up the vehicle.
2) Start engine.
3) Rotate drive wheel by hand.
4) Check voltage between ECM terminal 26 and ground with
tester.
Voltage should vary between 0 - 4.8V.

On Board Diagnosis Logic
This diagnosis continuously monitors the engine coolant temperature.
If the cooling fan or another component in the cooling system malfunctions, engine coolant temperature will
rise.
When the engine coolant temperature reaches an abnormally high temperature condition, a malfunction is
indicated.
Malfunction is detected when ... Check Items (Possible Cause)
+Cooling fan does not operate properly (Overheat).
+Cooling fan system does not operate properly (Overheat).
+Engine coolant was not added to the system using the proper
filling method.+Harness or connectors
(The cooling fan circuit is open or shorted.)

+Radiator hose
+Radiator
+Radiator cap
+Water pump
+Thermostat
+Fan belt
+Engine coolant temperature sensor
For more information, refer to ªMAIN 12 CAUSES OF
OVERHEATINGº, EC-3501.
CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, be sure to replace the coolant following the procedure in the MA
section (ªChanging Engine Coolantº, ªENGINE MAINTENANCEº). Also, replace the engine oil.
1) Fill radiator with coolant up to specified level with a filling speed of 2 liters per minute. Be sure
to use coolant with the proper mixture ratio. Refer to MA section (ªAnti-freeze Coolant Mixture
Ratioº, ªRECOMMENDED LUBRICANTS AND FLUIDSº).
2) After refilling coolant, run engine to ensure that no water-flow noise is emitted.

EC-3490

Overall Function Check
Use this procedure to check the overall function of the cooling
fan. During this check, a DTC might not be confirmed.
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Seri-
ous burns could be caused by high pressure fluid escaping
from the radiator.
Wrap a thick cloth around the cap. Carefully remove the cap
by turning it a quarter turn to allow built-up pressure to
escape. Then turn the cap all the way off.

below the proper range, skip the following steps and go to
ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-3494.
2) Confirm whether customer filled the coolant or not. If cus-
tomer filled the coolant, skip the following steps and go to
ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-3494.
3) Turn ignition switch ªONº.
4) Perform ªCOOLING FANº in ªACTIVE TESTº mode with
CONSULT-II and make sure that cooling fans operate when
touching ªONº or ªOFFº.
If NG, go to ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-3494.
WITHOUT CONSULT-II
1) Check the coolant level in the reservoir tank and radiator.
Allow engine to cool before checking coolant level.
