Partially immerse the sensor in water and warm up the water.

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

Standard Resistance

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
1 - 2	Approximately 20°C (68°F)	2.32 to 2.59 kΩ
1 - 2	Approximately 80°C (176°F)	0.310 to 0.326 kΩ

If the result is not as specified, replace the engine coolant temperature sensor.

HINT:

If the result is as specified, it is not necessary to replace the engine coolant temperature sensor.

NOTE:

When checking the engine coolant temperature sensor in water, keep the terminals dry. After the check, wipe the engine coolant temperature sensor dry.
