Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor

This module configures the operation of the engine coolant temperature sensor (ECT).

It's important to make sure that this sensor is functioning and adjusted correctly early in the tuning process because accurate ECT data is required to tune features such as:

￭

Fuel Mixture: Cold engines require a richer mixture. But, leaning the mix as the engine warms up provides better fuel efficiency.

￭

Ignition Timing: Cold engines typically need more ignition timing advance to aid combustion.

￭

Idle Control: A cold engine might need a slightly higher idle to maintain stability.
