testinng resistance on temp sensor II
Can anyone give me a simple way to test temp sensor II without ripping the stinker out. The part of the process I'm stuck on is that it is a single wire. Unlike temp sensor I where ther are two points at which to put your probe on II there is not. What to do, anyone, anyone?
Thanks Nate |

Is it possibly grounded through the threads?

Checking through the harness at the ECU connector, is a great idea because it tests the entire circuit to emulate what the ECU sees. Understand the results though. If there are problems, you may have a harness related issue and TS2 may actaully be good or vice-versa.

It's a pain to pull the ECU out and then slide off the end-cover to unplug the sucker.
Unplug the sensor, put one lead on the connector and the other lead on the cylinder head. It grounds to the head through its threads. --DD
