ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE (ECT) SENSOR [SKYACTIV-G 1.3, SKYACTIV-G 1.5]SM2759970
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE (ECT) SENSOR [SKYACTIV-G 1.3, SKYACTIV-G 1.5]

id0140q1006200


SKYACTIV-G 1.3, SKYACTIV-G 1.5 (With EGR Cooler)


Purpose/Function

• Detects the ECT as basic information (mainly used to determine the fuel injection amount) and sends it to the PCM as an ECT signal.


Construction

Installed to the water outlet case.
