 INSPECTION                                      Sensor

 Connect the water temperature sensor to the
 ohmmeter and dip it in water contained in a
 pan which is placed on an electric heater.
 Gradually raise oil temperature while
 reading the thermometer in the pan and the
 ohmmeter connected. If the resistance
 measured is out of specification, replace the            Thermometer
 temperature gauge with a new one.
  Temperature         Standard resistance
 50C             133.9­178.9 
 100C            26­29.3 

  Handle      the water temperature sensor
     carefully as it is vulnerable to impact.
     Do not allow the water temperature
     sensor and the thermometer to come in
     contact with the bottom of the pan.
