Heat Sensitive




The owner's problem may occur during hot weather or after car has sat for a short time. In such cases you will want to check for a heat sensitive condition.
To determine if an electrical component is heat sensitive, heat the component with a heat gun or equivalent.
Do not heat components above 60° C (140° F). If incident occurs while heating the unit, either replace or properly insulate the component.
