How to replace the Engine Coolant Temperature sensor on Nissan Xterra?

The engine cooling temperature sensor is a thermistor that modifies its resistance as the temperature changes. It is screwed into the intake manifold coolant passage on 4-cylinder and 3.3 L V6 models, and into coolant pipe on 3.5 L V6 models. The sensor senses coolant temperature and this information is used by the PCM to compute the engine operating temperature. A problem in the sensor circuit can set a trouble code due to wiring or connection issues or a faulty sensor. Therefore it is important to first check for voltage supply and ground circuits from PCM before checking the sensor. In case voltage supply is not correct, check wiring; if not inspected, PCM may be needed in this case. The resistance between two terminals of this sensor can be measured with ohmmeter. Replace it if the resistance test results are not right.If you replace it, wrap Teflon sealing tape around threads to prevent leakage and corrosion.The old one should be disconnected and removed quickly replaced with new one to minimize coolant loss.They should tightly secure the sensor and reconnect electrical connector. Check coolant level to see whether it needs filling up with coolant or not.Starting engine and allowing it reach normal operating temperature means checking for any leakage of coolant.Coolant level in expansion tank should also be checked after engine has both warmed up and cooled down.

Nissan Xterra Coolant Temperature Sensor

The Coolant Temperature Sensor will monitor the heat of the engine's coolant so that the engine control module can keep the combustion, idle, and cooling functions in the intended range. The sensor's tip is positioned in a coolant passage so that it can contact flowing coolant. The module uses an NTC thermistor that takes a 5-volt reference signal and returns a voltage that drops as the temperature goes up. The data is then converted to accurate values. Using data from the Coolant Temperature Sensor, the module increases injector pulse width for a richer mix when cold and then decreases it as the Nissan engine warms up. This lifts cold-start idle speed to prevent stalling and energizes the electric radiator fan. Feedback on temperature from the Coolant Temperature Sensor also determines when the EGR valve, purge valve, and torque converter clutch can activate. This is allowed only after it is safe to do so. The Coolant Temperature Sensor provides accurate readings to help each Nissan Xterra run smoothly, preventing overheating and maintaining Nissan's efficiency along the Xterra line. This also provides the temperature gauge for every Xterra to read. A failed Coolant Temperature Sensor can interfere with these controls.
