COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR
id304000202100
Purpose, Function
• The EV system coolant temperature is detected as basic information for determining the electric motor drive torque and the water pump discharge water volume.
• The EV system coolant temperature is detected and sent to the PCM as an EV system cooling water temperature signal.
Construction
• The coolant temperature sensor is located in the electric motor housing (vehicle front side).
• A thermistor has been adopted to the detection area of the coolant temperature sensor for detecting the EV system coolant temperature.
Operation
• The signal, which fluctuates according to the EV system coolant temperature, is sent to the PCM.
