Evaporator Temperature Sensor - Removal






REMOVAL

WARNING: Disable the airbag system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the airbag system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the airbag system. Failure to follow these instructions may result in accidental airbag deployment and possible serious or fatal injury.






NOTE: Illustration shown with air distribution housing removed for clarity.

NOTE: It is not necessary to remove and disassemble the HVAC housing to service the evaporator temperature sensor. The evaporator temperature sensor can be removed for service from underneath the instrument panel.

1. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable.
2. Reach up under the driver side of the instrument panel and disconnect the electrical connector for the evaporator temperature sensor (1) from the instrument panel wire harness.
3. Remove the evaporator temperature sensor electrical connector from the side of the HVAC housing (2).
4. Using needle nose pliers, carefully pull the evaporator temperature sensor straight out of the side of the HVAC housing.
5. Route the electrical connector and wire lead of the evaporator temperature sensor out from under the heater core tubes and remove the sensor from the vehicle.
