Monitor description
The engine coolant temperature (ect) sensor is used to monitor the temperature of the engine coolant. The resistance of the sensor varies with the actual coolant temperature. The ecm applies a voltage to the sensor and the varying resistance of the sensor causes the signal voltage to vary. The ecm monitors the ect signal voltage after engine start–up. If, after sufficient time has passed, the sensor still reports that the engine is not warm enough for closed–loop fuel control, the ecm interprets this as a fault in the sensor or cooling system.
Example: the engine coolant temperature was 0 c (32 f) at engine start. After 5 minutes running time, the coolant temperature sensor still indicates that the engine is not warm enough to begin air–fuel ratio feedback control.
The ecm interprets this as a fault in the sensor or cooling system and will set a dtc.

1. Data list
Hint:
using the data list displayed by the hand–held tester or the obd ii scan tool,
you can read the value of
the switches, sensors, actuators and so on without parts removal. Reading the
data list as a first step
of troubleshooting is one method to shorten diagnostic time.
