  1. If any other DTCs are displayed, diagnose and repair those DTCs first and retest. If only DTC P0116 or P0125 are set, go to next step.
  2. Remove and inspect cooling system thermostat. If problem exists, replace thermostat as necessary and retest. If problem does not exist, replace ECT sensor.
