take it to a auto mechanics shop and they will attach a device called a scanner to your truck..this enables the technician to communicate with the truck's computer using an OBD 2 connecter and depending on which model scanner they have it should give them a readout of the voltages on each sensor…they need to be within a certain range and if they are not the sensor is bad….hope this helps…i am currently training to be a ASE certified auto technician
