DTC Description
DTC DETECTION LOGIC
DTC No. | CONSULT screen terms (Trouble diagnosis content) | DTC detecting condition | |
P0196 | EOT SENSOR (Engine oil temperature sensor range/performance) | A | Rationally incorrect voltage from the sensor is sent to ECM, compared with the voltage signals from EOT sensor and intake air temperature sensor. |
B | The comparison result of signals transmitted to ECM from each temperature sensor (IAT sensor, ECT sensor, FTT sensor, and EOT sensor) shows that the signal voltage of the EOT sensor is higher/lower than that of other temperature sensors when the engine is started with its cold state. |
POSSIBLE CAUSE

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1.CHECK DTC PRIORITY
If DTC P0196 is displayed with DTC P0197 or P0198, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0197 or P0198.
Is applicable DTC detected? YES >> Perform diagnosis of applicable. Refer to EC-93, "DTC Index".
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.INSPECTION START
Is it necessary to erase permanent DTC? YES >> GO TO 7.
NO >> GO TO 3.
3.PRECONDITIONING
If DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE has been previously conducted, always perform the following procedure before conducting the next test.
TESTING CONDITION: Before performing the following procedure, confirm that battery voltage is 11 V or more at idle.
>> GO TO 4.
4.PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE FOR MALFUNCTION A-1
Is 1st trip DTC detected? YES >> Proceed to EC-279, "Diagnosis Procedure".
NO >> GO TO 5.
5.PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE FOR MALFUNCTION A-2
With CONSULT
If it is above 80°C (176°F), go to the following steps.
If it is below 80°C (176°F), warm engine up until “COOLAN TEMP/S” indicates more than 80°C (176°F).
Then perform the following steps.
NOTE: Do not turn ignition switch OFF until step 8.
If they are within the specified range, perform the following steps.
If they are out of the specified range, soak the vehicle to meet the above conditions. Then perform the following steps.
NOTE:
With GST
Follow the procedure “With CONSULT” above.
Is 1st trip DTC detected? YES >> Proceed to EC-279, "Diagnosis Procedure".
NO >> GO TO 6.
6.CHECK ENGINE OIL TEMPERATURE (EOT) SENSOR
Is the inspection result normal? YES >> GO TO 9.
NO >> Proceed to EC-279, "Diagnosis Procedure".
7.PRECONDITIONING
If DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE has been previously conducted, always perform the following procedure before conducting the next test.
TESTING CONDITION:
>> GO TO 8.
8.PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE B
NOTE: Cool the vehicle in an environment of ambient air temperature between −10°C (14°F) and 35°C (95°F).
CAUTION: Never turn ignition switch ON during this procedure.
NOTE: The vehicle must be cooled with the food open.
CAUTION: Never turn ignition switch OFF during idling.
Is 1st trip DTC detected? YES >> Proceed to EC-279, "Diagnosis Procedure".
NO >> INSPECTION END
9.CHECK INTERMITTENT INCIDENT
Refer to GI-41, "Intermittent Incident".
>> INSPECTION END
Diagnosis Procedure
1.CHECK DTC PRIORITY
If DTC P0196 is displayed with DTC P0197 or P0198, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0197 or P0198.
Is applicable DTC detected? YES >> Perform diagnosis of applicable. Refer to EC-93, "DTC Index".
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK ENGINE OIL TEMPERATURE (EOT) SENSOR
Check EOT sensor. Refer to EC-279, "Component Inspection".
Is the inspection result normal? YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> Replace EOT sensor. Refer to EC-14, "Component Parts Location".
3.CHECK INTERMITTENT INCIDENT
Refer to GI-41, "Intermittent Incident".
>> INSPECTION END
Component Inspection
1.CHECK ENGINE OIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR
Is the inspection result normal? YES >> INSPECTION END
NO >> Replace engine oil temperature sensor. Refer to EC-14, "Component Parts Location".
