Evaporator Temperature Sensor / Switch: Testing and Inspection

ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION




1. INSPECT EVAPORATOR TEMPERATURE SENSOR




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

NOTE:
- Even slightly touching the sensor may change the resistance value. Be sure to hold the connector of the sensor.
- 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 resistance is not as specified, replace the evaporator temperature sensor.
