    If connector is disconnected or loose, reconnect or repair the connector.

  4. 4

    Measure sensor resistance at CON7 pin 17 to pin 20. If resistance is 0 Ω (short), replace the sensor.

  5. 5

    If resistance is OL/infinite (open), replace the sensor.

  6. 6

    If resistance reads a value, cross-reference with temperature/resistance table: -30°C=40kΩ, -25°C=30kΩ, -20°C=23kΩ, -15°C=17kΩ, -10°C=13kΩ, -5°C=10kΩ, 0°C=8kΩ.

  7. 7

    If resistance is normal for the measured temperature, explain normal operation to customer.

  8. 8

    If resistance is out of range but sensor is not shorted or open, replace the Main PCB.
