PROCEDURE
INSPECT COOLER (ROOM TEMPERATURE SENSOR) THERMISTOR
| *a | Component without harness connected (Cooler (Room Temperature Sensor) Thermistor) |
| *b | Sensor Area |
| *c | Resistance (kΩ) |
| *d | Temperature (°C (°F)) |
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
| Standard Resistance | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Note
Touching the sensor even slightly may change the resistance value. Hold the connector of the sensor.
When measuring the resistance, the sensor temperature must be the same as the ambient temperature.
Tech Tips
As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases (see the graph).
If the result is not as specified, replace the cooler (room temperature sensor) thermistor.
