DIFFERENTIAL OIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR CONSTRUCTION/OPERATION
id031800166800
• The differential oil temperature sensor is installed in the rear differential carrier.
• The differential oil temperature sensor uses a thermistor whose resistance changes according to changes in the rear differential oil temperature.
• The resistance grows smaller as the oil temperature rises and vice-versa, as shown.
