Aux. Coolant Pump Relay: This parameter indicates when the auxiliary engine coolant pump is on or off.

Coolant Level Switch -- Range: Low/OK: This parameter indicates when the engine coolant level is low. The scan tool displays Low when the PCM detects the engine coolant level switch is open.

Displayed Coolant Temperature -- Range: 32-127°C (89-260°F): This data is the coolant temperature the Instrument Cluster is attempting to display on the coolant temperature gauge. This data may differ from the monitored coolant temperature for a period of time due to filtering. The data may also differ from the monitored coolant temperature when coolant temperature is not in the range of 71-127°C (160-260°F) since the display is limited to these values. If a Class 2 communication failure occurs, this data will be at the minimum value of 32°C (89°F).

ECT -- Range: -40°C to +150°C (-40°F to +302°F): The PCM applies 5.0 volts to the ECT sensor circuit. The sensor is a thermistor which changes internal resistance as the engine temperature changes. When the sensor is cold (internal resistance high), the PCM senses a high signal voltage and interprets the voltage 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.

Monitored Coolant Temperature -- Range: 40-215°C (40-419°F): This data is the clusters measurement of the engine coolant temperature as provided by the PCM on the Class 2 serial data line.

SGCM Fan Speed: This parameter indicates the commanded SGCM coolant fan speed. The scan tool displays 0-100%.

SGCM Pump Status: This parameter indicates the commanded SGCM coolant pump state. The scan tool displays On and Off.

SGCM Temperature: This parameter indicates the average coolant temperature of the SGCM coolant. The scan tool displays -40°C to +150°C.
