NOTE: You must use a dichotomic method to find the defective sensing element:
1 If the impedance is less than 10 KOhms: - Disconnect a connector in the middle of a sensing line.
- Measure the resistance of one of the halves.
If the measurement is correct, you must do a check of the other half.
If the measurement is not correct, do the same operation in the defective half again until you find the defective sensing element.
