The water temperature sensor typically consists of a thermistor (NTC), where the resistance decreases as the temperature increases, and increases as the temperature drops. The sensor transmits signals to the ECU based on these resistance changes, allowing the ECU to adjust various operations, such as fuel injection and fan speed.
It is a crucial component in ensuring the engine runs smoothly and prolonging its lifespan.
Description:
Adjusting fuel injection: Based on the data fed back from the water temperature sensor, the ECU can adjust the amount of fuel injected to ensure that the engine runs efficiently at different temperatures, avoiding damage due to overheating or low temperatures.
Control cooling fan: When the water temperature reaches a certain level, the sensor activates the cooling fan to help maintain the proper temperature.
Protecting the engine: When the coolant temperature is too high, the water temperature sensor can trigger a warning light to alert the driver and prevent damage due to engine overheating.
