Circuit / System Description
The engine oil temperature (EOT) sensor is a variable resistor that measures the temperature of the engine oil. The engine control module (ECM) supplies 5?volts on the EOT signal circuit, and a ground to the low reference circuit.
Monitoring the engine oil temperature is necessary for optimal control of the cam actuators. The oil temperature is monitored from the dual function oil level switch and temperature sensor located in the oil pan.
