NOTE

The sensor and thermometer must not touch the container side or bottom.

Place the container over a source of heat and gradually raise the temperature of the coolant while stirring the coolant gently.
Using the hand tester, measure the internal resistance of the sensor.

If the hand tester does not show the specified values, replace the sensor.
