Sensor Operating Specifications

1992 Eagle Talon TSi, FWD, StandardSECTION Sensor Operating Specifications
NOTE: Unless stated otherwise in test procedure, perform all voltage tests using a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input impedance.
AIRFLOW SENSOR RESISTANCE (1)

Application Terminals No. Ohms
1.8L & 2.0L Non-Turbo 4 & 6 (2)
2.0L Turbo 6 & 8 (2)
(1) For testing procedure, see I - SYS/COMP TESTS article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE Section.
(2) Resistance should be approximately 6000 ohms at 32°F (0°C), 2700 ohms at 68°F (20°C) and 400 ohms at 176°F (80°C).

OXYGEN SENSOR VOLTAGE (1)

Application Volts
1.8L (2) .6-1.0
(1) For testing procedure, see I - SYS/COMP TESTS article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE Section.
(2) Warm engine until coolant temperature reaches 185-205°F (85-96°C). Measure voltage with engine running at more than 1300 RPM.
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR RESISTANCE (1)

Terminals No. Ohms
1 & 4 3500-6500
2 & 4 3500-6500
(1) Operate throttle valve slowly from idle position to full open position. Check if resistance changes smoothly in proportion to throttle valve opening angle.

When to See a Mechanic

Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:

  • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
  • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
  • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
  • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
  • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
