3. INSPECT A/C ROOM TEMPERATURE SENSOR

  1. E110805E02
    Remove the A/C room temperature sensor.

  1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Standard resistance:
    Tester Connection
    Condition
    Specified Condition
    J38-1 - J38-2
    10°C (50°F)
    3.00 to 3.73 kΩ
    J38-1 - J38-2
    15°C (59°F)
    2.45 to 2.88 kΩ
    J38-1 - J38-2
    20°C (68°F)
    1.95 to 2.30 kΩ
    J38-1 - J38-2
    25°C (77°F)
    1.60 to 1.80 kΩ
    J38-1 - J38-2
    30°C (86°F)
    1.28 to 1.47 kΩ
    J38-1 - J38-2
    35°C (95°F)
    1.00 to 1.22 kΩ
    J38-1 - J38-2
    40°C (104°F)
    0.80 to 1.00 kΩ
    J38-1 - J38-2
    45°C (113°F)
    0.65 to 0.85 kΩ
    J38-1 - J38-2
    50°C (122°F)
    0.50 to 0.70 kΩ
    J38-1 - J38-2
    55°C (131°F)
    0.44 to 0.60 kΩ
    J38-1 - J38-2
    60°C (140°F)
    0.36 to 0.50 kΩ

    NOTICE:
    1. Hold the sensor only by its connector. Touching the sensor may change the resistance value.
    2. When measuring, the sensor temperature must be the same as the ambient temperature.

    HINT:
    As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases (see the graph).
