B3021 Mazda Mazda 2 Iii OBD Code

OBD/2 B3021 error code description and symptoms.

Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Circuit High Input Indicates the sensor signal is greater than Self-Test maximum. The ECT sensor maximum is 4.6 volts or -50 C (-58 F). Note on some vehicles that are not equipped with an ECT sensor, CHT can be used and can set this DTC. Open circuit in harness Sensor signal short to power Damaged PCM Improper harness connection Damaged sensor ECT V PID reading greater than 4.6 volts with key ON and engine OFF or during any engine operating mode indicates a hard fault.

Circuit High Input codes like B3021 are mostly caused by defective alternators that develop excessive voltages, although there may be other causes as well, such as short circuits that 'leak' current into a particular system from other, unrelated systems that work on higher voltages. Note that in the case of short circuits that leak power into a control circuit, there is likely to be other, seemingly unrelated trouble codes present along with the code(s) being investigated. Diagnosing a 'high input' code will always involve a thorough testing of the charging system as a first step, followed by measures to isolate the system from all other possible sources of power during resistance, continuity, and reference voltage tests.

For engine speed input circuit range/performance check engine light is perhaps the most troubling of lights because it could mean so many different things, from you didn't screw the gas cap on tightly enough to look out for pistons flying through the hood and into the stratosphere.

After you instruct it to perform the scan, it speaks engine speed input circuit range/performance with your car's computers to find out exactly what's prompting the light to turn on.

A common cause of code B3021 is the failure of Engine Speed Input Circuit Range/Performance, but there are several other possible causes as well, such as ;

Engine Control Module (ECM)
Damaged VCT phaser
Fuel tank leaking
Open circuits caused by damage to wiring.
