1. OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS
Detect the malfunction of the engine oil temperature sensor output properties. Using the following two diagnoses, judge as NG when either is NG.
• Diagnosis 1 (correlation diagnosis): After the engine starts after the specified period of soaking time has elapsed, diagnose by correlation between engine oil temperature sensor value, engine coolant temperature sensor value and intake air temperature sensor value. Judge as NG when the differences are both above the specified value by comparing between engine oil temperature and engine coolant temperature, engine oil temperature and intake air temperature.
• Diagnosis 2 (function diagnosis): Judge as NG when engine oil temperature does not rise to the specified value regardless of an engine running condition that clears certain conditions.

Secondary parameters | Execution condition |
Battery voltage | ≥ 10.9 V |
Soaking time | ≥ 21600 s |
Block heater judgment | Completed |
Block heater operation | Not in operation |
Secondary parameters | Execution condition |
Battery voltage | ≥ 10.9 V |

4. GENERAL DRIVING CYCLE
• Diagnosis 1: Perform the diagnosis only once after the engine starts after a certain period of soaking time.
• Diagnosis 2: Perform the diagnosis only once after starting the engine from cold condition.
5. DIAGNOSTIC METHOD
Judge as NG when Diagnosis 1 or Diagnosis 2 becomes NG.
If the duration of time while the following conditions are met is longer than the time indicated, judge as NG.
Diagnosis 1
Malfunction Criteria | Threshold Value |
