DTC Confirmation Procedure

NOTE:

Be sure to troubleshoot first unexpected DTCs previously detected in "DTC Confirmation Procedure".

DTC P0116:

NOTE:

Confirm that the following conditions are met in this "DTC Confirmation Procedure".

- ECT < 70 °C (158 °F)


- DTC P0102, P0103, P0117 or P0118 is not detected.

1) Warm up engine to normal operating temperature.
2) Run engine at idle speed for 2 min.
