Go to Step 2

Go to Instrument Cluster System Check

1. Disconnect the connector at the Engine Coolant Temperature Sender.
2. Connect one red lead of the J 33431-C to connector cavity A of the Engine Coolant Temperature Sender connector.
3. Connect the other lead of the J 33431-C to ground.
4. Turn the ignition switch to the RUN position.
5. Adjust the resistance dial to 1305 ohms and then to 49.5 ohms.

Does the temperature gauge match the values given?

1305ohms Cold, approx. 100°F (Gas)/160°F (Diesel). 49.5ohms Hot, approx. 260°F.

Go to Step 3

Go to Step 4
