ECT: The scan tool displays -40°C to +151°C (-40°F
to +304°F). The engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor is mounted in the coolant
stream. The engine control module (ECM) applies 5 volts to the ECT sensor
signal circuit. The sensor is a thermistor which changes internal resistance as
temperature changes. When the sensor is cold and the internal resistance is high,
the ECM monitors a high signal voltage and interprets it as a cold engine. As the
sensor warms and the internal resistance decreases, the voltage signal decreases
and the ECM interprets the lower voltage as a warm engine.
FC Relay 1 Command: The cooling fan relay is commanded
ON or OFF by the ECM.
FC Relay 2 Command: The cooling fan relay is commanded
ON or OFF by the ECM.
FC Relay 1 Circuit Status: The scan tool displays OK
or Fault. This parameter indicates the status for the state of the driver circuit
for this device.
FC Relay 2 Circuit Status: The scan tool displays OK
or Fault. This parameter indicates the status for the state of the driver circuit
for this device.
