Temperature Sending Unit

  1. Allow engine to cool. Disconnect temperature sending unit. Using a DVOM, measure resistance between terminal of sending unit and ground.
  2. Start engine. Measure sensor resistance as engine warms. If resistance values are not as specified, replace coolant temperature sending unit. See TEMPERATURE SENDER RESISTANCE  table.
TEMPERATURE SENDER RESISTANCE

Temperature - F° (C°) Resistance (Ohms)
167 (75) 179-219
212 (100) 60-72
