Inspection [10/2022 - ]: Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2025 Toyota Highlander, 2024 Toyota Highlander, and 2023 Toyota Highlander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. INSPECT ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR (for Outlet Side) 
    1. 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.
