MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM estimates the ECT based on the starting temperature, engine loads, and engine speeds. The ECM then compares the estimated temperature with the actual ECT. When the estimated ECT reaches 75C (167F), the ECM checks the actual ECT. If the actual ECT is less than 75C (167F), the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the thermostat or the engine cooling system and sets the DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT: Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction
1 CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0128)
Result
HINT: If any DTCs other than P0128 are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.
2 CHECK COOLING SYSTEM
3 INSPECT THERMOSTAT
Standard: 80 to 84C (176 to 183F)
HINT: In addition to the above check, confirm that the valve is completely closed when the temperature is below the standard.
