Coolant Temperature Sensor
Coolant temperature sensor resistance varies with engine temperature. Connect ohmmeter leads to sensor terminals. Immerse sensor in water at various temperatures. If resistance is not correct at specified temperature, replace sensor. See TEMPERATURE SENSOR RESISTANCE SPECIFICATIONS table. Sensor is located on left front side of engine.
