5. INSPECT WATER TEMPERATURE SENSORUsing an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between the ter-
minals.
Resistance: 1.48±1.58 k
at 80 5C (176 5F)
If the resistance is not as specified, replace the sensor.
6. REINSTALL WATER TEMPERATURE SENSOR (a) Install a new O±ring to the water temperature sensor.
(b) Apply soapy water to the O±ring.
(c) Install the water temperature sensor to the radiator.
Torque: 7.4 N Vm (75 kgf Vcm, 65 in. Vlbf)
(d) Connect the water temperature sensor connector.

2. INSTALL MANIFOLD GAUGE SET (See AC section)
3. INSPECT HIGH±PRESSURE SWITCH(a) Wh e n th e A/C switch is OFF, ch e ck th a t th e re iscontinuity between terminals 2 and 3. (When the
pressure is 1,226 kPa (12.5 kgf/cm
2, 178 psi) or lower.)
(b) When the A/C switch and blower switch are ON, check
that there is no continuity between terminals 2 and 3.
(When the pressure is 1,520 kPa (15.5 kgf/cm
2, 220 psi)
or higher.)
If continuity is not as specified, replace the switch.

EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION (EGR) SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
To reduce NOx emission, part of the exhaust gases are recirculated through\
the EGR valve to the intake
manifold to lower the maximum combustion temperature.

* The ECU calculates the appropriate number of steps according to the in\
take air volume and the engine speed, then
drives the stepping motor to maintain the EGR volume at a level appropri\
