The Volvo 240 Coolant Temperature Sensor is important in measuring the temperature of the engine coolant to provide real-time information to the engine control unit. This enables the engine to perform optimally without overheating. This part is directly threaded into the coolant passages to provide extremely precise measurements in the form of a negative temperature coefficient thermistor. Its electrical resistance decreases with increased heat. This device is fed by the engine control module with a 5-volt reference voltage. The internal resistance lowers the voltage returned to enable the computer to compute the precise amount of heat. This component fits the Volvo 200 series (designed to fit the 242, 244, and 245 body styles of the 240). The Volvo 240 Coolant Temperature Sensor can greatly improve engine efficiency by controlling the fuel injection and ignition timing. The module changes the injector pulse width to form a richer mixture when the engine is cold. It reduces this as the engine warms up. It also accelerates idle speed when cold to eliminate stalling. It activates and deactivates the electric cooling fan. Moreover, this temperature information allows certain component functions that only occur when the engine has warmed up. These include the exhaust gas recirculation system, the evaporative emissions control purge valve, and the transmission torque converter clutch. This stream of information is essential to the correct functioning of the car under different driving conditions. This leads directly to the safety and reliability of the car overall. One of the most effective things about the Coolant Temperature Sensor is that it fits perfectly alongside the other high-tech safety systems of the vehicle. This preserves the high global standards of safety of the Volvo.
