4. The sensor can be tested with an ohmmeter by heating or cooling the end of the sensor at a controlled temperature. If the
readings do not match those in the table, replace the sensor and retest.

5. If the ohm check of the cylinder head coolant temperature sensor indicates that the sensor is serviceable, perform an ohm
check of the sensor wiring between the sensor connector and the PCM.
6. If the wiring is serviceable, replace the PCM and recheck the sensor function using the CDS.
Cylinder Head Coolant Temperature Sensor Removal
1. Disconnect the engine harness connector from the sensor harness connector.
2. Remove the two screws securing the thermostat covers to the cylinder head.
3. Remove the cover and O‑ring.
4. Remove the sensor from the cylinder block.
Cylinder Head Coolant Temperature Sensor Installation
1. Inspect the sensor O‑ring for cuts or abrasions. Replace the O‑ring as required.
2. Apply Loctite 567 PST Pipe Sealant to the threads of the sensor.
