Test Procedure

Step	Procedure	Result / Action to Take
1	PERFORM: Preliminary Check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to PRELIMINARY CHECK . -- Was Complaint verified?	-- YES: GO TO: Step 2 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor - G62-, CHECKING - 2 . -- NO: GATHER more information from customer about the complaint.
2	IGNITION: OFF. DISCONNECT: Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor -G62- harness connector. CHECK: Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor -G62- component connector terminals 1 to 2 for resistance. SPECIFIED VALUE: 2, 50 Ω (+/- 750 Ω @ approx. 20° C). -- Was Value obtained?	-- YES: GO TO: Step 3 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor - G62-, CHECKING - 3 . -- NO: REPLACE: Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor -G62-. Refer to appropriate service information. GO TO: Step 4 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor - G62-, CHECKING - 4 .
3	REMOVE: Engine Control Module - J623-. Refer to appropriate service information. CHECK: Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor -G62- harness connector terminal 1 to the Engine Control Module - J623- harness connector T60 / 50 for resistance. CHECK: Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor -G62- harness connector terminal 2 to the Engine Control Module - J623- harness connector T60 / 27 for resistance. SPECIFIED VALUE: 0.5 Ω (± 0.3 Ω). -- Were Values obtained?	-- YES: TIP: The Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor -G62- may fail under loaded operation; please swap a known good Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor -G62- prior to continuing to the next step. GO TO: Step 4 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor - G62-, CHECKING - 4 . -- NO: PERFORM: Visual Inspection of wiring and component. CHECK: Wiring for open, high resistance, short or harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals. REPAIR: Faulty wiring or connector. GO TO: Step 4 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor - G62-, CHECKING - 4 .
