Standard Resistance

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
1 - 2	20°C (68°F)	2.32 to 2.59 kΩ
1 - 2	80°C (176°F)	0.310 to 0.326 kΩ

If the result is not as specified, replace the engine coolant temperature sensor.

NOTE:

When checking the engine coolant temperature sensor in water, do not allow water to go into the terminals. After checking, dry the engine coolant temperature sensor.
