Coolant Temperature
|
Engine coolant temperature
|
Min.: -40°C (-40°F)
Max.: 140°C (284°F)
|
75 to 100°C (167 to 212°F): After warming up
|
This is the engine coolant temperature.
HINT:
-
After warming up the engine, the engine coolant temperature will be 75 to 100°C (167 to 212°F).
-
After a long soak, the engine coolant temperature, intake air temperature and ambient air temperature will be approximately equal.
-
If the value is -40°C (-40°F), or higher than 135°C (275°F), the sensor circuit is open or shorted.
-
Check if the engine overheats if the value indicated is higher than 135°C (275°F).
