INSPECTION

PROCEDURE

1. INSPECT COOLER (ROOM TEMPERATURE. SENSOR) THERMISTOR

(a) Check the resistance.

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

Text in Illustration

*a	Component without harness connected (cooler thermistor (room temperature sensor))
*b	Sensing Portion
*c	Resistance (kΩ)
*d	Temperature (°C (°F))

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Switch 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

NOTICE:

Hold the sensor only by its connector. Touching the sensing portion may change the resistance value.
When measuring, the sensor temperature must be the same as the ambient temperature.

If the result is not as specified, replace the cooler thermistor (room temperature sensor).
