Thermistor Sensor Testing Instructions
1.) Use the resistance column to check the thermistor sensor while
disconnected from the controllers (not powered).
2.) 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 5.08 VDC, the sensor or wiring is “open.” If
the voltage is less than 0.05 VDC, the sensor or wiring is shorted.
