Charge Air Cooler Temperature (CACT) Sensor
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 25 other vehicles, including the 2013 Lincoln Navigator, 2013 Lincoln MKZ, 2013 Lincoln MKX, 2013 Lincoln MKT, and 2013 Lincoln MKS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The CACT sensor is located in the intake air tube between the charge air cooler (CAC) and the throttle body. The CACT sensor measures the throttle inlet temperature. The PCM uses the CACT sensor information to refine the estimate of the airflow rate through the throttle and to determine the desired boost pressure. The CACT sensor for a speed density system is integrated with the turbocharger boost pressure (TCBP) sensor.
