What Does a Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor Do?

The cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensor monitors the temperature of the engine's cylinder head, providing critical data to the engine control unit (ECU). The ECU uses this information to adjust fuel delivery, ignition timing, and cooling fan operation for optimal performance and engine protection. This sensor is particularly important for preventing overheating and detonation, which can cause serious engine damage.
