Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the ambient air temperature sensor.
  2. Ignition OFF, test for less than 1 ohm between the low reference circuit terminal B and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal replace the ISRVM.
  3. Ignition ON, verify that OC is displayed on the ISRVM display.
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal A for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal replace the ISRVM.
  4. Ignition ON, install a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal A and the low reference circuit terminal B. Verify that SC is displayed on the ISRVM display.
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal replace the ISRVM.
  5. If all circuits test normal, replace the ambient air temperature sensor.
