PREPARATION:
Remove the engine coolant temperature sensor.
CHECK:
Measure the resistance between the terminals of the engine
coolant temperature sensor.
OK:
Tester Connection
1 − 2
NOTICE:
If you check the engine coolant temperature sensor in wa-
ter, be careful not to allow water to go into the terminals. Af-
ter checking, dry the sensor.
HINT:
Alternate procedure: Connect an ohmmeter to the installed en-
gine coolant temperature sensor and read the resistance. Use
an infrared thermometer to measure the engine temperature in
the immediate vicinity of the sensor. Compare these values to
the resistance/temperature graph. Change the engine temper-
ature (by warming up or cooling down) and repeat the test.
(a) Reinstall the engine coolant temperature sensor.
NG Replace engine coolant temperature sensor
B Go to step 5.
