Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) Sensor - V6

The CHT sensor is located on the left bank cylinder head, between ignition coils No. 2B and 3B. This sensor provides input to the PCM for cylinder head temperature and is used for the fail-safe cooling system, in place of the engine coolant temperature sensor. Sensor allows cylinder head temperature to be measured even if coolant has been lost.
