Ignition "OFF".
Disconnect ambient temperature sensor.
Check the resistance of ambient temperature sensor between terminals 1 and 2 whether it is changed by changing of the ambient temperature.
Ambient temperature [℃(℉)] | Resistance between terminals 1and 2 (㏀) |
-30(-22) | 479.22 |
-20(-4) | 271.45 |
-10(14) | 158.32 |
0 (32) | 95.10 |
10 (50) | 58.76 |
20 (68) | 37.30 |
30(86) | 24.27 |
40(104) | 16.17 |
50(122) | 11.00 |
If the measured resistance is not specification, substitute with a known-good ambient temperature sensor and check for proper operation.
If the problem is corrected, replace the ambient temperature sensor.
Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
Remove the front bumper. (Refer to BD group-front bumper)
Remove the ambient temperature sensor (A).
Installation is the reverse order of removal.
