Fault symptom
CHECK ENGINE
Incorrect temperature gauge reading.

On-board diagnosis

Type of diagnosis:
Continuous

Enable criteria:
Engine running.
NONE of the following DTCs must be detected: P0117, P0118

Fault criteria:
The control module stores 5 consecutive measurements that differ more than 5 degree C from the directly preceding measurement. The average of the 5 measurements is calculated. If the average exceeds 10 degree C, a DTC is generated. A DTC is also generated if 2 consecutive measurements differ by more than 60 degree C.

Dependent:
None

System reaction to a fault:
-

OK report:
60 s have passed since start without fault or latest report without fault.

Fault handling:
Type III
(See Description of On-Board Diagnostics/Fault handling III, "Other emission-related components and functions" for more information.)

Checking the wiring harness
Move the wiring harness at several spots and in several directions to reveal intermittent breaks and short-circuits. Check switches, connectors and crimp connections for oxidation, retracted pins and pin clamping force.
