In-Car Temperature Sensor
CAUTION:
To avoid damage to sensor, use an ohmmeter with a measuring current of one milliamp or less.
Remove instrument panel lower cover. Remove sensor from instrument panel. Measure resistance across sensor connector terminals at specified temperatures. See IN-CAR TEMPERATURE SENSOR RESISTANCE table. If resistance is not as specified, replace sensor.
