Monitor Description
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
The ECM monitors the output voltage while the thermostat heater is operating.
The thermostat heater turns on and off according to ON/OFF switching of a transistor inside the ECM.
If a continuous mismatch occurs between the ECM transistor state and the output voltage, the ECM determines there is a malfunction in the thermostat heater circuit and stores a DTC.
