A system and method for determining whether a shut-off valve in a cabin heating by-pass line of a thermal sub-system associated with an engine has failed that uses the pump current for a pump that pumps the cooling fluid through the by-pass line. The method includes setting a predetermined constant speed of the pump and then providing a valve command that opens the by-pass valve. The method then determines if the pump current has increased or remained substantially the same when the by-pass valve is commanded open, and determines that the by-pass valve has not opened if the pump current remains substantially constant when the by-pass valve is commanded open.
