Inspection [06/2015 - ]: Procedure
- INSPECT THERMISTOR ASSEMBLY
- Check the resistance.
*a Component without harness connected
(Thermistor Assembly)*b Sensing Portion *c Resistance (kΩ) *d Temperature (°C (°F)) *e Allowable Range - Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 1 - 2 10°C (50°F) 3.00 to 3.73 kΩ 15°C (59°F) 2.45 to 2.88 kΩ 20°C (68°F) 1.95 to 2.30 kΩ 25°C (77°F) 1.60 to 1.80 kΩ 30°C (86°F) 1.28 to 1.47 kΩ 35°C (95°F) 1.00 to 1.22 kΩ 40°C (104°F) 0.80 to 1.00 kΩ 45°C (113°F) 0.65 to 0.85 kΩ 50°C (122°F) 0.50 to 0.70 kΩ 55°C (131°F) 0.44 to 0.60 kΩ 60°C (140°F) 0.36 to 0.50 kΩ NOTE:- Hold the sensor only by its connector. Touching the sensor may change the resistance value.
- When measuring, the sensor temperature must be the same as the ambient temperature.
HINT:
- As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases (see the graph).
- If the result is not as specified, replace the thermistor assembly.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Check the resistance.
