- A thermometer can be used to test the sensor off the vehicle in warn and or cold water. Sensor Resistance Table for this test.
- Test the appropriate temperature sensor by varying the sensor temperature in water while monitoring the sensor resistance.
- Compare the readings with the Temperature VS Resistance table and verify that the resistance is within 5 percent of the specification.
- If not within the specified range, replace the sensor.
