[urq] Re: Intake temperature sensor

[Justin]

I searched high and low for that sensor...very hard to find used...and the
dealer wanted $186.00 for it...I think the best bet is try to repair the
sensor if possible.  You can read the resistance value of the resistor by
reading the bands on the resistor.  I'm sure you easly solder in a
replacement.
Good luck,
Justin C.

So what is this component - some type of NTC resistor? Is it a commonly
available part that can be spliec/resoldered in? Source?

         Absolutely not Ben! The 5000 has a much higher resistance of 400
ohms rather than the 20 ohms used by the MAC02. You can easily check with an
ohmeter AFTER disconnecting from the ECU. You could also check by measuring
the voltage across the terminals with the ignition switched on. I do not
have the expected value here but can e-mail it to you from home late
tonight. I have a spare that you could borrow temporarily if necessary.
