air temperature sensor value

[wizz99]

Hi all , my bike is coming up with a error code that says there's a fault with the air temperature sensor. I checked the sensor and it looks ok , could anyone tell me the value of this air temperature sensor so i can check it , it's this one, http://www.mgcycle.com/product_info.php?products_id=1226 .

 

Thanks Wizz99

 

Ps sorry just noticed i've posted it in the wrong bit of the forum should be in Technical Topics

Do you have access to a wiring diagram for your bike? I assume the pcm is easier to access than the air temp sensor.If you can disconnect the wiring harness and check the resistance at the pins to see if you have continuity or not. If you don't then gain access to the sensor and check it. If it is open the sensor is bad.If it is not you have problems with the wiring.

p.s. I do not know what the resistance value is at ambient temperature. You should assume if it is between (for now) 100-2000 ohms it is o.k......

Thanks for your reply , i found the values in the fuel injection manual . The sensor has failed , so i've bought a 3k NTC thermister and chopped out the old one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Thermistor-3K-NTC-TT3-3KC3-BG-/320764367617?pt=UK_BOI_Electrical_Test_Measurement_Equipment_ET&hash=item4aaf0bd301 .

Are you sure this sensor is going to have the same temp/resistance values ? Yes or No..not maybe.

You can find the values of the original part here: http://www.jefferies-au.org/MyECU/maps.htm
