Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor Circuit

Circuit Description:
The coolant temperature sensor is a variable resistor sensor and is used to measure the temperature of the coolant of
the engine. The engine control module (ECM) supplies 5 volts to the coolant temperature signal circuit. The ECM
monitors the change in voltage caused by changes in the resistance of the sensor to determine the coolant
temperature.

Component Location:
The engine coolant temperature sensor is located on the thermostat housing.

Conditions for Running the Diagnostics:


This diagnostic runs continuously when the keyswitch is in the ON position.

Conditions for Setting the Fault Codes:


The Engine Control Module (ECM) detected the coolant temperature signal voltage was greater than 4.95-VDC for
more than 1 second.

Action Taken When the Fault Code is Active:
• The ECM illuminates the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp and/or the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) immediately
when the diagnostic runs and fails.
• A default value is used for the engine coolant temperature reading.
• Engine Torque will be reduced.

Conditions for Clearing the Fault Code:


• To validate the repair, perform a key cycle, start the engine and let it idle for 1 minute.
• •This fault code can not be cleared with INSITE™ electronic service tool.
• The ECM will turn off the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp immediately after the diagnostic runs and passes.
Use INSITE electronic service tool to verify the fault code is inactive.
• The inactive fault code will be cleared from the memory after 9600 hours of engine operation without a
reoccurrence.

Shop Talk:
The engine coolant temperature sensor shares return wires in the engine harness with other sensors. An open return
can cause multiple fault codes to be active.
Before troubleshooting Fault Code 144, check for multiple fault codes.
Possible causes of this fault code include:
• Open return circuit in the harness, connectors, or sensor
• Open signal circuit or shorted to a voltage source.
• Malfunctioning engine coolant temperature sensor

Refer to Troubleshooting Fault Code 144.
