Theory Of Operation

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor is a variable resistor that measures the temperature of the engine coolant. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) supplies 5 Volts to the ECT Signal circuit and supplies a ground to the low reference circuit.
