Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Nissan NV3500 HD and 2019 Nissan NV2500 HD. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Exhaust gas temperature sensor (EGT sensor) is installed exhaust manifold. Exhaust gas temperature sensor uses a thermistor which is sensitive to the change in temperature. Electrical resistance of the thermistor decreases in response to the temperature rises.
