The CVVT Oil Temperature Sensor (OTS) is a negative coefficient thermistor used by the PCM tl measure engine oil temperature for the purpose of adjusting CVVT calculations.
Temperature | Resistance (㏀) | |
℃ | ℉ | |
-40 | -40 | 52.0 |
-20 | -4 | 16.5 |
0 | 32 | 6.0 |
20 | 68 | 2.45 |
40 | 104 | 1.10 |
60 | 140 | 0.544 |

Turn ignition switch OFF.
Disconnect OTS connector.
Remove the OTS.
After immersing the thermistor of the sensor into water (or engine coolant), measure resistance between OTS terminals 1 and 2.
Check that the resistance is within the specification.
