What is the Cost to Diagnose the Code?

Labor: 1.0

To diagnose the P0125 2008 Toyota Camry code, it typically requires 1.0 hour of labor. The specific diagnosis time and labor rates at auto repair shops can differ based on factors such as the location, make and model of the vehicle, and even the engine type. It is common for most auto repair shops to charge between $75 and $150 per hour.

When is the Code Detected?

The Engine Control Module (ECM) monitors the ECT signal voltage after engine start-up. If, after sufficient time has passed, the sensor still reports that the engine is not warm enough for closed-loop fuel control, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the sensor or cooling system and sets a Detected Trouble Code (DTC).
Example:
The ECT is 0C (32F) at engine start. After 5 minutes running time, the ECT sensor still indicates that the engine is not warm enough to begin active feedback control of the air-fuel ratio. The ECM interprets this as a fault in the sensor or cooling system and sets a DTC.

What are Code Possible Symptoms?

  • Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)

Code P0125 2008 Toyota Camry Description

The resistance of the ECT sensor varies in proportion to the actual ECT. The ECT supplies a constant voltage to the sensor and monitors the signal output voltage of the sensor. The signal voltage output varies according to the changing resistance of the sensor. After the engine is started, the ECT is monitored through this signal. If the ECT sensor indicates that the engine is not yet warm enough for closed-loop fuel control, despite a specified period of time having elapsed since the engine was started, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the sensor or cooling system and sets the DTC.
Example: The ECT is 0°C (32°F) at engine start. After about 1 minute running time, the ECT sensor still indicates that the engine is not warm enough to begin closed-loop fuel (air-fuel ratio feedback) control. The ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the sensor or cooling system and sets the DTC.
