How to Diagnose Temperature Sensor Failures with a Multimeter: Core Logic + Practical Procedures
Core Principle: Temperature-related faults in electrical or industrial systems can be quickly located using the inherent resistance–temperature characteristics of NTC/PTC thermistors and the mV output characteristics of thermocouples.By performing three diagnostic steps—static resistance check, dynamic heating/cooling test, and loop continuity/voltage measurement—more than 90% of temperature-related failures can be accurately identified. 1. Identify the Sensor Type […]
