- Test the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor. Compare the ECT sensor value to the intake air temperature (IAT) sensor value on a cold engine. The ECT and IAT sensor values should be within Β± 3Β°C (5Β°F). If the ECT sensor is out of range with the IAT sensor, test the resistance of the ECT sensor. Refer to Temperature Versus Resistance for resistance specifications. Replace the ECT sensor if the resistance is not within specification. Refer to Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor Replacement . If the sensor is within the specification, test the ECT circuits for a high resistance.
- Test the idle air control (IAC) system.
- Verify that the fuel system has adequate pressure for engine start-up. Refer to Fuel System Diagnosis (w/o FPCM)Β or Fuel System Diagnosis (w/FPCM)Β for fuel pressure specifications.
