  Q: How to replace an ECT Sensor on Honda Crosstour?

  A: Drain the engine coolant, remove the air filter housing, and disconnect the electrical connector from the ECT sensor. Unscrew and remove the ECT sensor and remove and discard the old O-ring. Tighten the ECT sensor to the correct torque, refill the cooling system, raise the vehicle, and support it securely on jackstands. Remove the lower splash shield, unplug the electrical connector, and untighten the sensor from the radiator. To reinstall, switch the removal steps going from the final step to the beginning step. Install a new O-ring on the sensor, tighten the ECT sensor securely, and refill the cooling system.

  Q: Does the PCM eliminate the need for an individual temperature sending unit in engine monitoring systems on Honda Crosstour?

  A: All models use a variety of electronic sensors and an onboard computer to monitor various engine parameters, engine temperature being one of them. The Powertrain Control Module controls the temperature gauge on the instrument cluster. An individual sending unit for the temperature gauge is not necessary with this technology.
