In a Kia Sportage, the temperature sensor monitors the engine's coolant temperature and provides critical data to the engine control unit (ECU). This information helps the ECU regulate engine performance, fuel efficiency, and emissions by adjusting the fuel-air mixture and ignition timing. Additionally, it can trigger warning lights if the engine overheats, helping to prevent potential damage. Overall, the temperature sensor plays a vital role in maintaining optimal engine operation.
