The Engine Oil Temperature Sender provides measurements of the engine oil temperature after filtering. The Engine Oil Temperature Sender also aids in the detection of degraded of the oil cooler performance. Temperatures that are greater than 107°C (225°F) will have a negative impact on the engine life.
A resistive signal which corresponds to the oil temperature is sent from the sender to the Main Display Module. Typically, the resistance range of the sender is 70 to 800 Ohms (Ohms). The Main Display Module converts the resistive signal and the Main Display Module displays the value on the Premium Quad Gauge Electronic Module.

The Air Inlet Temperature Sender provides measurements of the Air Inlet temperature prior to entering the cylinder head. The Air Inlet Temperature Sender also aids in the detection of the following conditions that occur in the area that is located next to the engine air filters.
- Degraded aftercooler performance
- High ambient air temperatures
- Poor air ventilation
Temperatures that are 30°C (86°F) greater than the Aftercooler Water Temperature will have a negative impact on engine performance.
A resistive signal which corresponds to the Air Inlet temperature is sent from the sender to the Main Display Module. Typically, the range of resistance of the sender is 70 Ohms (Ohms) to 800 Ohms (Ohms). The Main Display Module converts the resistive signal and the Main Display Module displays the value on the Premium Gauge Cluster Module.
