Coolant Temperature Sensor(ECTS)

The engine coolant temperature sensorisused todetect the
engine coolant temperature. Thesensor modifies avoltage sig-
nal from theECM. Themodified signalreturns tothe ECM as
the engine coolant temperature input.Thesensor usesather-
mistor whichissensitive tothe change intemperature. The
electrical resistance ofthe thermistor decreases astempera-
ture increases.
