B. Thermostat and Heater Operation (Refer to Figure

5). Note: These tests can only be conducted during

cold weather operation. Turn off the ignition switch

and cool the thermostat and heater assembly to

below 40°F. Using an ohmmeter, check the resistance

between the electrical pins in the air dryer connector

half. The resistance should be 1.5 to 3.0 ohms for the

12 volt heater assembly and 6.0 to 9.0 ohms for the 24

volt heater assembly. Warm the thermostat and heater

assembly to approximately 90°F and again check the

resistance.

The resistance should exceed 1000 ohms. If the

resistance values obtained are within the stated limits,

the thermostat and heater assembly is operating

properly. If the resistance values obtained are outside

the stated limits, replace the heater and thermostat

assembly.
