Kia Sedona: Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor (ECTS) Repair procedures
1. |
Turn the ignition switch OFF. |
2. |
Disconnect the ECTS connector. |
3. |
Remove the ECTS (Refer to "Removal"). |
4. |
After immersing the thermistor of the sensor into engine coolant, measure resistance between the ECTS terminals 3 and 4. |
5. |
Check that the resistance is within the specification.
