Repair Procedures: Inspection

[Resistance Inspection] 

  1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
  2. Remove the OTS. (Refer to "REMOVAL ")
  3. After immersing the thermistor of the sensor into engine coolant, measure resistance between the OTS terminals 1 and 2.
  4. Check that the resistance is within the specification.
