Exhaust Temperature Light?

I was getting ready to leave work today, and was looking at the warning lights, key on, but engine off, and saw this light. Started up as usual, and it went away, but was curious as to what, and or where would this sensor be located, and is this a sensor to indicate the maybe cats plugged? No idea. Thanks in advance!

PEACE THE DOG

bigdv519, I checked out your thumbnail, unfortunately the 2nd and 3rd picture and writings are unclear. Can you send me to a specific spot to find it? Appreciate you responding so quickly, I just cant find anything about it.

don't worry about it, the sensor will only trigger if the car is basically burning to the ground. it's relatively useless.


seen cats glowing bright orange and the sensor still hadn't flashed on yet.

Sometimes a word is worth a thousand pictures--the sensor is under the carpet, under the passenger seat.

Yup, the sensor didn't go off in our case either...

Edit: Yeah buttsjim is right, its under the passenger seat and carpet.
