The invention discloses a
thermostat, a
thermostat control method and an engine cooling
system. The
thermostat comprises two outer supports and a
temperature sensing sensor set, a shell is arranged at the bottoms of the opposite sides of the two outer supports, an outer shell is arranged in a cavity formed by the shell and the outer supports, a
temperature sensing medium is arranged in an inner cavity of the outer shell, a push rod is arranged in an inner cavity of the
temperature sensing medium, the bottom of the push rod penetrates through the inner cavity of the outer shell and extends to the outside of the shell, and the bottom of the push rod is fixedly connected with
electric control equipment. According to the thermostat control method, the
water temperature of an engine can be stably controlled, the actual
water temperature fluctuation is small, the
stable state is basically achieved, the actual
water temperature and the target water temperature are kept roughly consistent, meanwhile, in the fault detection process, fault misjudgment is effectively avoided, the
fault analysis and diagnosis rate is increased, and then the normal operation of a vehicle is effectively ensured.
