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
Other materials:
Combination meter assy
Overhaul
Hint: components:
1. Remove meter hood sub–assy
2. Remove combination meter assy
Remove the screw.
disengage the 2 clips as shown in the illustration.
disconnect the connector, then remove the combination
meter.
3. Remove combination meter glass

Inspection
1. Intake air flow meter sub–assy
Inspect the intake air flow meter resistance.
Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between
terminals tha and e2.
Resistance:
at –20 c (–4 f) 13.6 To 18.4 KΩ
at 20 c (68 f) 2.21 To 2.69 KΩ
at 60 c (140 f) 0.49 To 0.67 ...
Problem symptoms table
The suspected circuits or parts for each problem symptom are shown in the
table below. Use this table to
troubleshoot the problem when a normal code is displayed in the diagnostic
trouble code chart but the problem
is still occurring. Numbers in the table indicate the order in which the
circ ...
