CHT sensor circuit range/performance
DETECTION
CONDITION
z
Indicates the engine coolant temperature logic test has failed. This DTC
indicates that the CHT value is higher than the calibrated value and could
prevent 1 or more OBD monitors from completing.
The PCM runs this logic after an engine off and a calibrated soak period
(typically 6 hours).
This soak period allows the IAT and the CHT to stabilize and not differ by
more than a calibrated value.
DTC P0116 is set when all of the following conditions are met:
{
The CHT at engine start exceeds the IAT at engine start by more than
a calibrated value, typically
17 °C {30 °F}.
{
The CHT exceeds a calibrated value, typically
107 °C {225 °F}.
{
The fuel system, heated oxygen and misfire monitors have not
completed.
{
The calibrated time to set DTC P0116 has expired.
