Description
The battery temperature sensor installed on the battery current sensor detects battery temperature.
A thermistor is integrated into the battery temperature sensor, and the resistance in the battery temperature sensor changes according to the battery temperature.
The resistance of the thermistor in the battery temperature sensor decreases as the battery temperature increases. The resistance increases as the temperature decreases.
The battery temperature sensor is connected to the ecm. The ecm supplies 5 v from the thb terminal to the battery temperature sensor through resistor r.
The battery temperature sensor and resistor r are connected in series. This results in fluctuations in the voltage supplied from the thb terminal when the resistance changes according to the battery temperature.
The ecm determines the battery temperature according to fluctuations in voltage. When the battery temperature is high, the ecm determines to reduce the amount of current supplied from the generator in order to protect the battery.

Description
The ecm determines the battery power according to the voltage of the batt
terminal while the engine is
running (not cranking).
Inspection procedure

Differential oil
On-vehicle inspection
Check differential oil
Stop the vehicle on a level surface.
Using a 10 mm socket hexagon wrench, remove the
rear differential filler plug and gasket.
Check that the oil level is between 0 to 5 mm (0 to
0.20 In.) From the bottom lip of the different ...
