How accurate is the "Temperature" gauge?
#31
This is as close in writing I have from the PCED...
Note: The Engine Temperature Warning Indicator (gauge or lamp) is a warning system that gives the driver information during an engine overheating condition. The PCM monitors the CHT sensor and determines if fail-safe cooling mode is needed. If fail-safe cooling mode is needed, the PCM can signal the driver in 2 ways:
Temperature Warning Indicator information received through the vehicle Communication Link (SCP or CAN):
The PCM sends a SCP or CAN message to the instrument cluster to signal an overheating condition. This causes the instrument cluster indicator to illuminate and/or forces the temperature gauge to the H (hot) zone. DTC P1285 will also be stored in the PCM.
