What is a cylinder head sensor?
Thermometrics Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor is designed to take the place of one of the cylinder head bolts on a diesel engine. The sensor’s purpose is to measure the cylinder head temperature and to signal the vehicle’s operator if an engine overheats (that is, if an engine over-temperature is taking place).
How do you test a CHT sensor?
Checking the ECT/CHT sensor Voltage: Another way to test the sensor is to measure the voltage across the sensor terminals with the ignition on. Checking the ECT sensor voltage. The sensor is connected to the engine computer (PCM).
