Check the 'Possible Causes' listed above. Visually inspect the related wiring harness and connectors. Check for damaged components and look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded connector pins.
The cost to diagnose the P101C code is 1.0 hour of labor. The diagnosis time and labor rates at auto repair shops vary depending on the location, make and model of the vehicle, and even the engine type. Most auto repair shops charge between $75 and $150 per hour.
The Glow Plug Control Module (GPCM) has the ability to perform internal diagnostics for the temperature sensor circuit. The GPCM monitors the internal temperature sensor voltage and if the voltage is less than 0.21 V or greater than 4.94 V. The GPCM will send a message to the Engine Control Module (ECM) to set the appropriate Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC). A DTC is detected when one of the GPCM temperature sensors voltage falls outside the calibrated threshold for greater than 1.3 s.
