and remove it from the tank.
– Using the ohmmeter function of the multimeter, attach
the multimeter leads to the sensor cables.
– When the sensor is in the vertical position, it should
show a short circuit, that is, less than 0.1 Ω.
– In the reverse position, it should show an open, that is,
infinite resistance.
CONTROL DIODE
