Using the scan tool, check the coolant temperature:

If the specified value is not obtained:

-

Continue test according to the following table:

If the specified value was obtained:

-

Start the engine and let it run at idle.

The temperature value must increase uniformly in increments of 1.0° C.

If the engine shows problems in certain temperature ranges and if the temperature does not climb uniformly, the temperature signal is intermittent. 

-

Replace the the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor ( G62).
