Scheme 897: DTC P2184: ECT Sensor 2 Circuit Low Voltage
  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  2. Check ECT SENSOR 2 in the DATA LIST with the HDS. Is about 356 °F(180 °C) or more, or 0.08 V or less indicated? YES -Go to step 3. NO -Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at ECT sensor 2 and the PCM.
  3. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  4. Disconnect the ECT sensor 2 2P connector.
  5. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  6. Check ECT SENSOR 2 in the DATA LIST with the HDS. Is about 356 °F (180 °C) or more, or 0.08 V or less indicated? YES -Go to step 7. NO -Go to step 11 .
  7. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  8. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.
  9. Disconnect PCM connector A (49P).
  10. Check for continuity between ECT sensor 2 2P connector terminal No. 2 and body ground. Is there continuity? YES -Repair a short in the wire between ECT sensor 2 and the PCM (A34), then go to step 13 . NO -Go to step 18 .
  11. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  12. Replace ECT sensor 2 (see «ECT SENSOR 2 REPLACEMENT»(ref-512916-S27594133232012110400000) ).
  13. Reconnect all connectors.
  14. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  15. Reset the PCM with the HDS.
  16. Do the PCM idle learn procedure (see «PCM IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE»(ref-512915-S18881962312012110400000) ).
  17. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS. Is DTC P2184 indicated? YES -Check for poor connections or loose terminals at ECT sensor 2 and the PCM, then go to step 1 . NO -Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated «DTC'S TROUBLESHOOTING»(ref-512916-S10431985942012110400000) .
  18. Reconnect all connectors.
  19. Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software (see «PCM UPDATE»(ref-512916-S11084252612012110400000) ), or substitute a known-good PCM (see «SUBSTITUTING THE PCM»(ref-512892-S14637491262012110400000) ).
  20. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS. Is DTC P2184 indicated? YES -Check for poor connections or loose terminals at ECT sensor 2 and the PCM. If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM (see «SUBSTITUTING THE PCM»(ref-512892-S14637491262012110400000) ), then recheck. If the PCM was substituted, go to step 1 . NO -If the PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM (see «PCM REPLACEMENT»(ref-512916-S02027474692012110400000) ). If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated «DTC'S TROUBLESHOOTING»(ref-512916-S10431985942012110400000) .
