Remove the water temperature sensor (2)
from thermostat.
INSPECTION
Connect the water temperature sensor to the
ohmmeter and dip it in oil contained in a
pan which is placed on an electric heater.
Gradually raise oil temperature while
reading the thermometer in the pan and the
ohmmeter connected. If the resistance
measured is out of specification, replace the
temperature gauge with a new one.
