Toyota Corolla (E120): The ambient temperature does not display
Wiring diagram
Inspection procedure
1 Inspect outer ambient temperature sensor
- Remove cooler (ambient temp. Sensor) thermistor.
- measure resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of cooler
(ambient temp. Sensor) thermistor connector at each temperature.
Resistance:
at 0 c (0 f) : 9.097 – 9.701 KΩ at 25 c (77 f) : 2.725 – 2.865 KΩ
Hint
: as the temperature increases, the resistance decreases.
Resistance:
2 Check harness and connector
Check and replace combination meter assy

Shift position uses
*: Shifting to the D position allows the system to select a gear suitable for
driving conditions. Setting the shift lever to the D position is recommended for
normal driving.
■Downshifting restrictions

On–vehicle inspection
1. Check cooling fan operation with low temperature (below 83 c (181 f))
Turn the ignition switch on.
check that the cooling fan stops.
Hint:
if not, check the cooling fan relay and water temperature sensor, and check for
separated connector or severed
wire between the cooling fan ...
Precaution
1. Check that the battery cables are connected to the correct terminals.
2. Disconnect the battery cables when the battery is given a quick charge.
3. Do not perform tests with a high voltage insulation resistance tester.
4. Never disconnect the battery while the engine is running.
5. Check that ...
