Thermistor Sensor Testing Instructions
Use the resistance column to check the thermistor sensor while
disconnected from the controllers (not powered).
Use the voltage column to check sensors while connected to powered
controllers. Read voltage with meter set on DC volts. Place the “-”
(minus) lead on GND terminal and the “+” (plus) lead on the sensor
input terminal being investigated.
If the voltage is above 4.88 VDC, then the sensor or wiring is “open.”
If the voltage is less than 0.05 VDC, then the sensor or wiring is
shorted.
Temperature Sensor Testing
Leaving Water Temperature Sensor
Testing
The following sensor voltage and resistance table is provided to aid
in checking sensors that appear to be operating incorrectly. Many
system operating problems can be traced to incorrect sensor wiring.
Be sure all sensors are wired per the wiring diagrams in this manual.
If the sensors still do not appear to be operating or reading correctly,
check voltage and/or resistance to confi rm that the sensor is operating
correctly per the tables. Please follow the notes and instructions that
appear after the chart when checking sensors.
