2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard resistance

   Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
   D26-1 (+) - D26-2 (-)	10°C (50°F)	3.00 to 3.73 kΩ
   D26-1 (+) - D26-2 (-)	15°C (59°F)	2.45 to 2.88 kΩ
   D26-1 (+) - D26-2 (-)	20°C (68°F)	1.95 to 2.30 kΩ
   D26-1 (+) - D26-2 (-)	25°C (77°F)	1.60 to 1.80 kΩ
   D26-1 (+) - D26-2 (-)	30°C (86°F)	1.28 to 1.47 kΩ
   D26-1 (+) - D26-2 (-)	35°C (95°F)	1.00 to 1.22 kΩ
   D26-1 (+) - D26-2 (-)	40°C (104°F)	0.80 to 1.00 kΩ
   D26-1 (+) - D26-2 (-)	45°C (113°F)	0.65 to 0.85 kΩ
   D26-1 (+) - D26-2 (-)	50°C (122°F)	0.50 to 0.70 kΩ
   D26-1 (+) - D26-2 (-)	55°C (131°F)	0.44 to 0.60 kΩ
   D26-1 (+) - D26-2 (-)	60°C (140°F)	0.36 to 0.50 kΩ

   NOTE:

   • Touching the sensor even slightly may change the resistance value. Be sure to hold the connector of the sensor.
   • When measuring, the sensor temperature must be the same as the ambient temperature.

   HINT: 

   As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases (see the graph in illustration above).

NG → See step   6 

OK: Go to next step 

1. Disconnect the D26 sensor connector.

2. Disconnect the D37 amplifier connector.
3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard resistance

   Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
   D26-1 (+) - D37-29 (TR)	Always	Below 1 Ω
   D26-2 (-) - D37-35 (SG-4)	Always	Below 1 Ω
   D26-1 (+) - Body ground	Always	1 MΩ or higher
   D26-2 (-) - Body ground	Always	1 MΩ or higher

NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

OK → See step   7
