1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate temperature sensor.
2. Test for the appropriate resistance between the signal terminal A or 1 and the low reference terminal B or 2. Refer to Sensor Resistance Table
for Sensor Resistance Table (See: Heating and Air Conditioning/Specifications/Electrical Specifications) resistance values.
锟斤拷 If not within the specified range, replace the sensor.
