Cabin Temperature Sensor / Switch: Testing and Inspection

In-Car Temperature Sensor

In-Car Temperature Sensor Location:

1. Pull the dome light out at the left side.
2. Disconnect the 2-pin connector and the vent hose from the sensor.
3. Press the interior temperature sensor out.
4. Place the sensor next to an accurate temperature gauge (thermometer) and allow enough time for the sensor and the gauge to adjust to the ambient temperature.
5. With a suitable ohmmeter, check the resistance of the sensor.

Temp. Sensor Resistance Values:

6. Compare the readings with the temperature chart.

If the resistance is not within the specified range, replace the interior temperature sensor.
