PROCEDURE
INSPECT COOLER THERMISTOR (ROOM TEMPERATURE SENSOR)
Check the resistance.
| *a | Component without harness connected (Cooler Thermistor (Room Temperature Sensor)) |
| *b | Sensing Portion |
| *c | Resistance (kΩ) |
| *d | Temperature (°C (°F)) |
| *e | Allowable Range |
Measure the resistance according to thevalue(s) in the table below.
| Standard Resistance | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Note
Hold the cooler thermistor (room temperature sensor) only by its connector. Touching the sensing portion may change the resistancevalue.
When measuring, the cooler thermistor (room temperature 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 thermistor (room temperature sensor).
