1) Lead Terminal Voltage
1. Disconnect the lead from the coolant temperature sensor after turning the main switch off.
2. Turn the main switch on and measure the voltage with a voltmeter across the lead terminal and the chassis.
If the voltage differs from the battery voltage, the wiring harness, fuse or coolant temperature gauge is faulty.
