Ambient Temperature Sensor / Switch HVAC: Testing and Inspection
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSORINSPECTION
1. INSPECT AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR
a. Measure the resistance.
NOTE:
- Touching the sensor even slightly may change the resistance value. Hold the connector of the sensor.
- When measuring the resistance, the temperature of the sensor and the ambient temperature sensor must be the same.
HINT: As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases (see the graph).
