The Tech 2 will display sensor value as a voltage. This gives the approximate voltage
expected at different ambient temperatures as well as what should be read with an
ohmmeter connected to the sensor. Since this is raw data any heat from underhood that
changes ambient temp around the sensor might skew the reading, so let the engine
compartment cool.
