Tests DX: Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor



PINPOINT TEST DX: ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE (ECT) SENSOR

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:

^ engine coolant temperature ( ECT) sensor (12A648)
^ harness circuits: ECT and SIGRTN
^ powertrain control module ( PCM) (12A650)

Engine coolant temperature must be greater than 10°C (50°F) to pass the KOEO self-test and greater than 82°C (180°F) to pass the KOER self-test. To accomplish this the engine must be at normal operating temperature.

Voltage values calculated for VREF = 5 volts. These values can vary by 15% due to sensor and VREF variations.
