Checking Components And Wiring
Check the resistance of the outside temperature sensor.
NOTE:
The outside temperature sensor may be defective if there was a short-circuit to supply voltage in the signal cable. Check this before replacing the sensor.
Check the signal cable between control module terminal #B29 (#B39) and outside temperature sensor terminal #2. Check for a short-circuit to supply voltage. Check for an open-circuit.
HINT: With the ignition on and the outside temperature sensor connector disconnected, the voltage between #2 and ground must be approximately 5 V.
Check the ground lead between control module terminal #B4 (#B14) and outside temperature sensor terminal #3. Check for an open-circuit.
Remedy as necessary.
