Diagnosing medium temperature engine coolant thermostat operation to prevent unnecessary thermostat replacement. The information in this bulletin is intended as a procedure that should be performed if a 4-cylinder Emira has generated Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P2CEF00 Auxiliary Thermostat “A” Stuck Open (see image for thermostat location). Generation of DTC P2CEF00 may also result in: - Illumination of the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL). - A low coolant temperature warning message being displayed. IMPORTANT: Do not continue with the procedure in this bulletin If DTC P2CEF00 has NOT BEEN generated. 1. If the thermostat MOVES FREELY when heated and cooled, then refit the original thermostat with a new gasket and refill the engine with new antifreeze/coolant. 2. If the thermostat DOES NOT move freely when heated and cooled, then fit a NEW thermostat and gasket and refill the engine with new antifreeze/coolant. Carefully package the thermostat and contact Emira Support using LCMS to arrange collection.
