ECT Sensor-Range: -40°C to 150°C (-40°F to 302°F): The PCM applies 5.0 volts to the ECT sensor circuit. The sensor is a thermistor, which changes internal resistance as the engine temperature changes. When the sensor is cold (internal resistance high), the PCM senses a high signal voltage and interprets the voltage as a cold engine. As the sensor warms (internal resistance decreases), the voltage signal decreases and the PCM interprets the lower voltage as a warm engine.
