Condition
Specified Condition
1 - 2
20°C (68°F)
2.32 to 2.59 kΩ
1 - 2
80°C (176°F)
0.310 to 0.326 kΩ
Note:When checking the engine coolant temperature sensor in water, do not allow water to contact the terminals. After checking, dry the sensor.
If the result is not as specified, replace the engine coolant temperature sensor.
