The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) recognizes that the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor has failed its self coherence test. The coolant temp should only change at a certain rate, if this rate is too slow or too fast this fault will set. Two trip fault. Three good trips to clear MIL. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) light will illuminate on first trip failure.
