Coolant Temperature Control Module Requested MIL Illumination

Moderate severity

What it means

A dedicated coolant-temperature control module (used on engines with electric coolant pumps and electronic thermostats to keep the cylinder head and block at independent setpoints) has requested the ECM to illuminate the MIL because of an emissions-relevant fault on its side. Original fault is in that module.
