Toyota Tacoma 2015-2018 Service Manual: Engine Coolant Temperature Receiver Gauge Malfunction
DESCRIPTION
In this circuit, the meter CPU receives engine coolant temperature signals from the ECM using the CAN communication system (CAN V1 Bus). The meter CPU displays engine coolant temperature that is calculated based on the data received from the ECM.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
HINT:
If there is an open or short in the engine coolant temperature sensor circuit,
the ECM stores the DTCs. Troubleshoot the SFI System (for 2TR-FE) (See page
.gif)
) or SFI System (for 2GR-FKS) (See page
) .
PROCEDURE

READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (COOLANT TEMPERATURE) |
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Combination Meter / Data List.
(e) According to the display on the Techstream, read the Data List.

Blind Spot Monitor Slave Module Beam Axis Inspection Incomplete (C1ABC)
DESCRIPTION
This DTC is stored when a beam axis inspection has not been performed for the
blind spot monitor sensor RH.
HINT:
This DTC is always stored after replacing a blind spot monitor sensor. The purpose
of this DTC is to ensure that beam axis inspection is performed. Completing the
be ...
