  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  2. Check ECT SENSOR 1 in the DATA LIST with the HDS. Is about -40°F (-40°C) or less, or 4.92 V or more 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 1 and the PCM.
  3. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  4. Disconnect the ECT sensor 1 2P connector.
  5. Connect ECT sensor 1 2P connector terminals No. 1 and No. 2 with a jumper wire.
  6. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  7. Check ECT SENSOR 1 in the DATA LIST with the HDS. Is about -40°F (-40°C) or less, or 4.92 V or more indicated? YES -Go to step 8. NO -Go to step 20 .
  8. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  9. Remove the jumper wire from the ECT sensor 1 2P connector.
  10. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  11. Measure the voltage between ECT sensor 1 2P connector terminal No. 1 and body ground. Is there about 5 V? YES -Go to step 12. NO -Go to step 16 .
  12. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  13. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.
  14. Disconnect PCM connector B (49P)*2 or C (49P)*1.
  15. Check for continuity between PCM connector terminal C16*1 or B34*2 and ECT sensor 1 2P connector terminal No. 2. '09 - 11 models '12 model Is there continuity? YES -Go to step 27 . NO -Repair an open in the wire between the PCM (C16)*1 or (B34)*2 and ECT sensor 1, then Go to step 22 .
  16. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  17. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.
  18. Disconnect PCM connector C (49P).
  19. Check for continuity between PCM connector terminal C32 and ECT sensor 1 2P connector terminal No. 1. Is there continuity? YES -Go to step 27 . NO -Repair open in the wire between the PCM (C32) and ECT sensor 1, then Go to step 22 .
  20. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  21. Replace ECT sensor 1 (see «ECT SENSOR 1 REPLACEMENT»(ref-336453-S09996968152009072700000) ).
  22. Reconnect all connectors.
  23. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  24. Reset the PCM with the HDS.
  25. Do the PCM idle learn procedure (see «PCM IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE»(ref-336473-S09468920992009072700000) ).
  26. Check for Pending DTCs or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS. Is DTC P0118 indicated? YES -Check for poor connections or loose terminals at ECT sensor 1 and the PCM, then Go to step 1 . NO -Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Pending DTCs or Confirmed DTCs are indicated, Go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.
  27. Reconnect all connectors.
  28. Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software (see «PCM UPDATE»(ref-336453-S09500398002009072700000) ), or substitute a known-good PCM (see «SUBSTITUTING THE PCM»(ref-336452-S17145915352009072700000) ).
  29. Check for Pending DTCs or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS. Is DTC P0118 indicated? YES -Check for poor connections or loose terminals at ECT sensor 1 and the PCM. If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM (see «SUBSTITUTING THE PCM»(ref-336452-S17145915352009072700000) ), 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-336453-S28620960052009072700000) ). If any other Pending DTCs or Confirmed DTCs are indicated, Go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.
