The Coolant Temperature Sensor monitors engine coolant temperature. It is typically installed in an
existing mounting hole on the top of the intake manifold. The sensor has 3/8" NPT threads. The
supplied adapter may be required to install the sensor in some manifolds with 1/2" NPT threads. The
engine block or cylinder head may have a provision for mounting a coolant temperature sensor. Just be
aware that heat radiated from headers may be absorbed by the metal sensor body and skew the
temperature readings to the ECU. Also, depending on your application, you may have to drain some
coolant before removing the plug in your manifold to prevent overflow. Use thread sealant or tape
when installing the sensor and the adapter.
ECU (Electronic Control Unit) Installation
ECU Installation Notes:

The ECU is water resistant when the USB port plug is in place. It can be mounted in the engine
compartment or in the vehicle’s interior.

The USB port is used to connect the ECU to a computer in the event that an ECU update
becomes available. The USB port is not used in normal operation.

Avoid mounting locations that expose the ECU to extreme heat or that confine it to a closed
area with no air circulation.

The ECU should not be mounted close to electrically “noisy” components. In particular, keep
good spacing (try for 2 feet minimum) from ignition components (ignition boxes, coils,
distributors, etc.).

There are LEDs on the front face of the ECU which can be used to monitor its operation and to
signal if the on-board diagnostics has detected a problem. To take advantage of this feature, the
ECU will need to be mounted so that the front face of the ECU is visible. The hand-held will
also indicate if any faults have been detected so the ECU does not have to be visible to the
driver.

Self-tapping screws are included for mounting the ECU.
Wiring Harness Installation
Wiring Harness Installation Notes:

The main battery wires, labeled “BATTERY POS” and “BATTERY NEG”
MUST BE
CONNECTED DIRECTLY
to the battery. Connecting them anywhere else invites
