ACT/ECT testing
Hi all,
Trying to test my sensors this morning. The truck is at ambient temperature, should I still be able to get resistance readings on these two sensors?
If so, by the same token, I should be able to take one out of the box and get resistance readings as well...correct?
Thanks,
Rick

See here... http://www.fordfuelinjection.com/
Both these sensors can be tested with a DMM and heated water for the ECT and a hair dryer/heat gun for the ACT, the resistance readings will change as the sensor heats up from ambient.
