5325 DIESEL. HAVING TROUBLE WITH HEAT SENSOR. WHEN ENGINE IS COLD, SHOULD SENSOR BE A CONDUCTOR OR NON CONDUCTOR? CAN THE CENSOR BE REMOVED WITHOUT DRAINING THE RADIATOR ?
Hi neighbor as I see you own land within 10 miles of me & I think I knew your Dad. I tried to look up the sensor spec's on JDparts.com but spec's weren't listed. RE500844 Sensor ADD 24.85 USD Have you asked local JD dealer service manager for sensor spec's?
Here's some tests you can make:
Remove wire from sensor. With key ON you should have 12v at the wire. Gauge should read COLD
If you ground the wire (from sensor) With Key ON, gauge should read HOT.
With an OHM meter sensor OHMS:
140 degrees 120-148 ohms
194 degrees 47-55 ohms
212 degrees 35-42 ohms
DO YOU KNOW KEN OR JAY DAVIS, DALTON OR ANY OTHER OF THE HUGHES, THE ABNEYS ? IF SO, ASK ABOUT ME.
