Intake Sensor
The intake sensor is located on the heater and cooling unit assembly. It converts temperature of air after it passes through the evaporator into a resistance value which is then input to the unified meter and A/C amp.
Scheme 209
After disconnecting intake sensor connector, measure resistance between terminals 1 and 2 at sensor harness side, using the table below.
| Temperature °C (°F) | Resistance kohms |
|---|---|
| 15 (5) | 18.63 |
| 10 (14) | 14.14 |
| 5 (23) | 10.85 |
| 0 (32) | 8.40 |
| 5 (41) | 6.57 |
| 10 (50) | 5.18 |
| 15 (59) | 4.12 |
| 20 (68) | 3.30 |
| 25 (77) | 2.66 |
| 30 (86) | 2.16 |
| 35 (95) | 1.77 |
| 40 (104) | 1.46 |
| 45 (113) | 1.21 |
