- INSPECT ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 1 - 2 20°C (68°F) 2.32 to 2.59 kΩ 80°C (176°F) 0.310 to 0.326 kΩ NOTE:If checking the engine coolant temperature sensor in water, be careful not to allow water to contact the terminals. After checking, wipe the water off the engine coolant temperature sensor.
If the result is not as specified, replace the engine coolant temperature sensor.
