Which risk increases when an internal combustion engine's exhaust temperature sensor fails low?

A)Fuel control enters 'open loop'
B)Catalytic converter core meltdown
C)Turbocharger over-speed and bearing failure
D)Intake manifold absolute pressure faults

💡 Explanation

Low exhaust temp. signal from a defective sensor invokes open loop fueling because normal exhaust temperature feedbacks for stoichiometric adjustment are considered corrupted; therefore, excessively rich unburnt fuel exits and may damage components, rather than optimal combustion control for higher efficiency and lower emissions.
