Pinpoint Tests

PINPOINT TEST DL : CYLINDER HEAD TEMPERATURE (CHT) SENSOR

NOTE: On a typical vehicle, the CHT sensor is located in the cylinder head and the CHT2 sensor is located in the exhaust manifold.

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

On applications that do not use an ECT sensor, the CHT sensor is used to determine the engine coolant temperature. To cover the entire temperature range of both the CHT and ECT sensors, the PCM has a dual switching resistor circuit on the CHT input. A graph showing the temperature switching from the COLD END line to the HOT END line, with increasing temperature and back with decreasing temperature is included. Note the temperature to voltage overlap zone. Within this zone it is possible to have either a COLD END or HOT END value at the same temperature. For example, at 90C (194F) the voltage could read either 0.60 volt or 3.71 volts. Refer to the table for the expected values.

Voltage values calculated for VREF = 5 volts. These values can vary by 15% due to sensor and VREF variations.

Refer to the DTC Fault Trigger Conditions.
