Component Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Chevrolet Suburban 3500 HD. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
  2. Disconnect the electrical connector: B34 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor
  3. Test for 42 to 78, 834 Ω between the test points: Signal terminal 2/B & Low Reference terminal 1/A
    • If not between 42 to 78, 834 Ω 

      Replace the component: B34 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor

    • Go to next step: If between 42 to 78, 834 Ω 
  4. Verify the value is within the range listed in the table: Temperature Versus Resistance - Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor
    • If not in the specified range 

      Replace the component: B34 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor

    • Go to next step: If in the specified range 
  5. Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Each terminal of the component & The component's housing
    • If less than infinite resistance 

      Replace the component: B34 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor

    • Go to next step: If infinite resistance 
  6. All OK.
