The device that controls engine temperature is called a thermostat and it's usually located where the upper radiator hose connects to the engine.
The engine coolant temp (ECT) sensor monitors the engine temp and sends that info to the engine control module (ECM). The ECM takes in info from many sensors including the ECT to determine the correct air/fuel ratio for the conditions. So to answer your question, yes. The ECT sensor does play a part in fuel control.
The engine temp sensor is on the front of the engine, next to the thermostat housing.The engine temp sensor is on the front of the engine, next to the thermostat housing.
The temp sensor for the ECM (engine control module) is next to the thermostat housing.
the coolant temp sensor( cts) reads the temp of the engine and adjust the fuel air mixture depending on the temp. if its cold out the sensor will adjust for more fuel to ease the start of the engine. ADDITIONAL: The Coolant Temperature Sensor measures the temp of the coolant, not the engine. The sensor controls the thermo fans on/off. depending upon temperature. The actual engine temperature sensor is on top of the engine and does not control the fans. If the fans do not switch on at any temperature, disconnect the 2 wire connector from the sensor (Usually at the bottom of the radiator) If fans start up with connector disconnected, replace the sensor.
coolant temp sensor,does just what it says,it relays your coolant temp to gauges!
Yes. The temp sensor for the gauge would be the one on the drivers side of engine head between #3 and #5 spark plugs. This also depends on what year you have.
a temp sensor is located on the intake or the thermostat housing
where is the engine mangement temp sensor on a ford focus and how is it fitted
The ECM (Engine Control Module) operates the fuel injectors with information received from various sensors such as the crankshaft sensor, the camshaft sensor, the engine coolant temp sensor, the oxygen sensor(s), the mass air flow sensor, the manifold absolute pressure sensor and so on.
Check the temp sensor. The control is not turning on the fan when engine temp requires it, so the most common cause is the sensor.
That is the air temp in the air inlet for the engine. It let the CDI control module know the incoming air temp.
There is usually an ECT (engine coolant temp) sensor and a CTS (coolant temp sensor) located around the thermostat housing mounted in the intake. One sends coolant temp to the guage, the other sends temp to computer.
