Evaporator Temperature Sensor / Switch: Testing and Inspection
EVAPORATOR THERMISTOR
A thermistor is a temperature sensor to sense the temperature of air discharged from evaporator. The electrical characteristic is shown.
When temperature is lower than specified, amplifier makes magnet clutch turn off to prevent evaporator from frosting.
Specified Resistance
0 °C, 32 °F: 6.3 - 7 k ohms
25 °C, 77 °F: 1.8 - 2.2 k ohms
Check resistance if it is within the shaded range of above graph.
