PACCAR MX P0116 is the fault code page for “Coolant temperature sensor rate of change fault” in the 2013 PACCAR MX Diagnostic Service Manual. PACCAR publishes it for engines in the EPA 2013 emissions family, and it is worked with the DAVIE diagnostic software.
What this fault code means
The manual describes P0116 as a coolant temperature sensor rate of change fault. The ECU is not judging the absolute reading here but how fast it moves: a coolant value that climbs or falls faster than the cooling system physically can is treated as a rationality failure rather than a wiring failure.
PACCAR MX P0116 page structure
This is a one-page entry. It carries the code number and the fault code description, then the standard headings used throughout the manual, but the detail under them is not printed on this page. Instead the page states: Please Contact the Engine Support Center.
- Description and location of component
- Diagnostic condition, set condition and reset condition
- Electrical diagrams and technical data
- Possible causes and additional information
- Diagnostic step-by-step and verification drive cycle
Treat the page as a confirmed identification of the code plus an instruction on where the full procedure lives. That is still worth having in writing when a customer asks why the shop is calling the factory.
