PCM (B43) and the alternator, then go to step 18.

18. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

19. Reconnect all connectors.

20. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

21. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.

22. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure (see page

11-310).

23. Start the engine.

24. Check under these conditions:

• A/C on
• Temperature control at maximum cool
• Blower fan at maximum speed
• Rear window defogger on
• Headlights on high beam

PGM-FI System

25. Hold the engine speed at 2,000 rpm (A/T in P or N,

M/T in neutral) for 1 minute.

26. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS.

Check for poor connections or loose

terminals at the alternator and the ECM/PCM, then
go to step 1.

Troubleshooting is complete. If any other

Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to the
indicated DTC’s troubleshooting.

27. Reconnect all connectors.

28. Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest

software (see page 11-227), or substitute a known-
good ECM/PCM (see page 11-7).

29. Start the engine.

30. Check under these conditions:

• A/C on
• Temperature control at maximum cool
• Blower fan at maximum speed
• Rear window defogger on
• Headlights on high beam

31. Hold the engine speed at 2,000 rpm (A/T in P or N,

M/T in neutral) for 1 minute.

32. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS.

Check for poor connections or loose

terminals at the alternator and the ECM/PCM. If the
ECM/PCM was updated, substitute a known-good
ECM/PCM (see page 11-7), then go to step 29. If the
ECM/PCM was substituted, go to step 1.

If the ECM/PCM was updated, troubleshooting

is complete. If the ECM/PCM was substituted,
replace the original ECM/PCM (see page 11-228). If
any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated,
go to the indicated DTC’s troubleshooting.

NOTE:

• Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and

any on-board snapshot, and review the general
troubleshooting information (see page 11-3).

• If DTC P0111 is stored at the same time as DTC P2183,

troubleshoot DTC P0111 first, then recheck for DTC
P2183.

Go to step 15.

Go to step 4.

4. Start the engine, and let it idle for 10 minutes.

5. Check ECT SENSOR 2 in the DATA LIST with the

HDS.

Replace ECT sensor 2 (see page 11-225), then

24. Connect the ECT sensors to their 2P connectors, but

do not install them.

25. Note the value of ECT SENSOR 1 and ECT SENSOR

2 quickly in the DATA LIST with the HDS.

26. Compare the value of ECT SENSOR 1 and the

ambient temperature, and the value of ECT
SENSOR 2 and the ambient temperature
individually.

Replace the sensor that differed more than

3 °C (5.4 °F) from the ambient temperature.

• ECT sensor 1 (see page 11-225)
• ECT sensor 2 (see page 11-225)

After replacing the sensor, go to step 27.

Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this

time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals
at ECT sensor 1, ECT sensor 2, and the ECM/PCM.

Does ECT SENSOR 2 dif f er 3 °C ( 5.4 °F ) or mor e
f r om the ambient temper atur e?

Is about 47 °C ( 117 °F ) or less indicated?

Is about 60 °C ( 140 °F ) or less, or 1.50 V or mor e
indicated?
