Title: M20A-FKS (ENGINE CONTROL): SFI SYSTEM: P26AC11,P26AC15; Engine Coolant Bypass Valve "B" Circuit Short to Ground; 2019 - 2020 MY Corolla Corolla Hatchback [06/2018 - 03/2019]

DTC

P26AC11

Engine Coolant Bypass Valve "B" Circuit Short to Ground

DTC

P26AC15

Engine Coolant Bypass Valve "B" Circuit Short to Battery or Open

DESCRIPTION

The flow shutting valve (for continuously variable transaxle fluid control) used for the variable cooling system is a magnet type valve that is closed when the engine is warming up to prevent coolant from flowing through the continuously variable transaxle cooler passage which reduces engine warm up time.

DTC No.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

If the engine switch is on (IG) or the engine is running and the current operating state and target operating state of the flow shutting valve (for continuously variable transaxle fluid control) do not match, the ECM determines that there is an open or short in the flow shutting valve (for continuously variable transaxle fluid control) circuit and stores a DTC.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

HINT:

  • After repair has been completed, clear the DTC and then check that the vehicle has returned to normal by performing the following All Readiness check procedure.

    Click here 2019 - 2022 MY Corolla Corolla Hatchback [06/2018 - 09/2022]; M20A-FKS (ENGINE CONTROL): SFI SYSTEM: DTC CHECK / CLEAR

  • When clearing the permanent DTCs, refer to the "CLEAR PERMANENT DTC" procedure.

    Click here 2019 - 2022 MY Corolla Corolla Hatchback [06/2018 - 09/2022]; M20A-FKS (ENGINE CONTROL): SFI SYSTEM: DTC CHECK / CLEAR

  • Make sure to perform this procedure when the engine coolant temperature is between 5 and 40°C (41 and 104°F) and the difference between the engine coolant temperature and intake air temperature is within 10°C (18°F) or less.
  1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
  2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
  3. Turn the Techstream on.
  4. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
  5. Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
  6. Turn the engine switch on (IG) [A].
  7. Turn the Techstream on.
  8. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Activate the Coolant Water Route Switching Valve 2 [B].
  9. Perform the Active Test Activate the Coolant Water Route Switching Valve 2, select "Close" and wait for 3 seconds or more [C].
  10. Perform the Active Test Activate the Coolant Water Route Switching Valve 2, select "Open" and wait for 3 seconds or more [D].
  11. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes [E].
  12. Read the pending DTCs.

    HINT:

    • If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
    • If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
  13. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.
  14. Input the DTC: P26AC11 or P26AC15.
  15. Check the DTC judgment result.

    Techstream Display

    Description

    NORMAL
    • DTC judgment completed
    • System normal

    ABNORMAL
    • DTC judgment completed
    • System abnormal

    INCOMPLETE
    • DTC judgment not completed
    • Perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions

    HINT:

    • If the judgment result is NORMAL, the system is normal.
    • If the judgment result is ABNORMAL, the system is malfunctioning.
    • [A] to [E]: Normal judgment procedure.

      The normal judgment procedure is used to complete DTC judgment and also used when clearing permanent DTCs.

    • When clearing the permanent DTCs, do not disconnect the cable from the battery terminal or attempt to clear the DTCs during this procedure, as doing so will clear the universal trip and normal judgment histories.

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.

HINT:

Read Freeze Frame Data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as Freeze Frame Data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, Freeze Frame Data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
