Ambient Temperature Sensor Test

  1. Turn the ignition OFF.
  2. Disconnect the ATS harness connector.
  3. Measure the resistance of the ATS. See AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR RESISTANCE  table. The sensor resistance should read between these min/max values. If the resistance values are not OK, replace the sensor.
