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 powertrain control module (PCM).

FC Relay 2 Command: The cooling fan relay is commanded ON or OFF by the PCM.

Low Coolant Level: The scan tool displays YES or NO, determined by the state of the low coolant level switch.
