Outside Air Temperature Sensor Test

NOTE: Before testing the sensor, check for HVAC DTCs How to Troubleshoot the Climate Control System.

1. Remove the outside air temperature sensor Service and Repair.

2. Dip the sensor in ice water, and measure the resistance. Then pour warm water on the sensor, and check for a change in resistance.

3. Compare the resistance reading between outside air temperature sensor terminals No. 1 and No. 2 with the specifications shown in the graph; the resistance should be within the specifications.





4. If the resistance is not as specified, replace the out side air temperature sensor Service and Repair.
