Engine Coolant and Hydraulic Oil Temperature Senders
The Groundsmaster 4000--D and 4010--D use two (2)
temperature senders as inputs for the TEC--5002 to
identify if either the engine coolant or hydraulic oil tem-
perature has reached an excessive level. These send-
ers are identical. The coolant temperature sender
threadsinto theradiator (Fig. 62).Thehydraulic oiltem-
perature sender is attached to the hydraulic hydraulic
tube on the left side of the machine (Fig. 63).
Testing
1. Locate temperature sender that is to be tested. Dis-
connect wire harness connector from sender.
2. Thoroughly clean area around temperature sender
and remove sender.
3. Put sensing end of sender in a container of oil with
a thermometer and slowly heat the oil (Fig. 64).
CAUTION
Handle the hot oil with extreme care to prevent
personal injury or fire.
NOTE: Priorto taking resistance readingswith a digital
multimeter,short themeter test leadstogether. Them e-
ter will display a small resistance value (usually 0.5
ohms or less). This resistance is due to the internal re-
sistance of the meter and test leads.Subtract this value
fromfromthemeasuredvalueofthecomponentyouare
testing.
4. Check resistance of the sender with a multimeter
(ohms setting) as the oil temperature increases.
A. The meter should indicate from 11.6 to 13.5 kilo
ohms at 68

D. Replace sender if specifications are not met.
5. After allowing the sender to cool, install sender:
A. Install new O--ring on sender.
