Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation

Engine Temperature Sensor

The engine temperature sensor, located on the R.H. side of the intake manifold, uses a thermistor which changes in resistance according to the
coolant temperature. As the temperature rises the resistance of the sensor lowers. The ECU interprets the resistance value as engine temperature.
