Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Locations

The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor is located in front of the engine.

NOTE: In some applications of the 4.6L engine, the Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) sensor provides the signal used by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) in place of the ECT for functions such as, but not limited to, activating the electric cooling fans.
