Default ECT fuse

what is the ECT fuse for? It's a 10A fuse by the starter and engine control fuse in the front fuse box of the engine compartment.

there is no fuse in there on my car? and on one side where one of the prongs of the fuse would go if I put one in doesn't have the metal piece to make a connection?

I am wondering if this could be what is causing my problems b/c the car has been stumbling like it was bad o2's/maf/ etc. and it was throwing an o2 code so I replace those and it worked for a whole 24 hours and now the problem is back.

You mean ETC? Electronic Throttle Control (V6 only).

The fuse directly below the STRTR fuse in mine is ETC?

just checked again and I guess it is ETC. my mistake. so you say that is for V6 only? so that would explain why there is no fuse there!! damn looks like I will have to look somewhere else to find what is causing my problem.
