IPC -- Inputs -- Coolant Hot Lamp: The scan tool displays
On or Off. The state of the engine coolant temperature indicator as commanded by
the IPC.
PCM -- ECT: The scan tool displays -40 to +151°C (-40
to +304°F). The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is mounted in the coolant
stream. The PCM applies 5 volts to the ECT sensor circuit. The sensor is
a thermistor which changes internal resistance as temperature changes. When the sensor
is cold (internal resistance high), the PCM monitors a high signal voltage and interprets
it 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.
PCM -- FC Relay 1 Circuit Status: The scan tool displays
OK or Fault. This parameter indicates the state of the driver circuit for this device.
PCM -- FC Relay 1 Command: The scan tool displays On or
Off. This parameter indicates the state of the low speed fan relay driver.
PCM -- FC Relay 2 and 3 Circuit Status: The scan tool displays
OK or Fault. This parameter indicates the state of the driver circuit for this device.
PCM -- FC Relay 2 and 3 Command: The scan tool displays
On or Off. This parameter indicates the state of the high speed fan relay driver.
