Air Temperature Sensor
If you suspect the Supply Air Temperature Sensor is not reading
correctly, make sure the wiring terminal connections are tight and
that any wiring splices are properly connected. You can check the
operation of the Supply Air Temperature Sensor by measuring
the resistance or voltage using a digital multimeter. Set the meter
to DC volts. Place the positive probe on the AI terminal and the
negative probe on the GND terminal. Read the DC volts and find
that voltage in
Table 8, this page
and
Table 9, page 32.
Read the temperature corresponding with that voltage and
determine if this is close to the actual temperature the sensor is
exposed to. If the temperature from the chart is different by more
than a few degrees, you probably have a defective or damaged
sensor.
You can also check the sensor resistance to determine correct
operation. To read the resistance, set the meter to ohms. Unplug
the sensor connector from the board and measure the resistance
across the disconnected wires. This resistance should match the
corresponding temperature from
Table 8, this page
and
Table
9, page 32.
Thermistor Sensor Testing Instructions
1. Use the resistance column to check the thermistor
sensor while disconnected from the controllers (not
powered).
2. 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
GND terminal and the “+” (plus) lead on the sensor
input terminal being investigated.

Temperature to Resistance/Voltage Chart
Note:
If the voltage is above 3.3 VDC the sensor or wiring is “open.” If the voltage is less than 0.05 VDC, the sensor or wiring is shorted.
