      (Cooler (Solar Sensor) Thermistor)

      Using an ohmmeter, connect the positive lead to terminal 2 and the negative lead to terminal 1, and then measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      1 - 2 Sensor subjected to electric light Except ∞ Ω
      1 - 2 Sensor covered with a cloth ∞ Ω (No continuity)

      Note

      The connection procedure for using a digital tester such as a TOYOTA electrical tester is shown above. When using an analog tester, connect the positive (+) lead to terminal 1 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 2 of the A/C solar sensor.

      Tech Tips

      Use an incandescent lamp for inspection. Bring it within 30 cm (11.8 in.) of the A/C solar sensor.

      If the result is not as specified, replace the cooler (solar sensor) thermistor.
