Temperature Sensor Testing
Table 6: Temperature, Resistance, and Voltage for Type III Sensors
Coil Temperature Sensor Testing
The
Temperature, Resistance, and Voltage for Type III
Sensors table, Table 6 below,
is provided to aid in checking
sensors that appear to be operating incorrectly. Many system
operating problems can be traced to incorrect sensor wiring. Be
sure all sensors are wired per the wiring diagrams in this manual.
If the sensors still do not appear to be operating or reading
correctly, check voltage and/or resistance to confirm that the
sensor is operating correctly per the tables. Please follow the
notes and instructions that appear after the chart when checking
sensors.
Thermistor Sensor Testing Instructions
Use the resistance column to check the thermistor sensor while
disconnected from the controllers (not powered).
Use the voltage column to check sensors while connected to
powered controllers. Read voltage with meter set on DC volts.
Place the “-” (minus) lead on the GND terminal and the “+” (plus)
lead on the sensor input terminal being investigated.

NOTE:
If the voltage is above 4.88 VDC, then the sensor or wiring is “open.” If the voltage is less than 0.05 VDC, then the sensor or wiring is shorted.
