Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Infiniti Q60. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The exhaust gas temperature sensor is installed to the turbine housing of turbocharger. This sensor uses a thermistor, and electric resistance changes according to temperature changes. The electrical resistance decreases with an increase in temperature.
