Question Coolant temp sensor measurement

Hi All,

If I measure the RESISTANCE between the two pins on the Coolant Temp Sensor (2-pin type), would this be a viable test?

I have the CD for the values T vs R, as well as instructions on measuring it via pin 7 or 21 of the N3 (KE Ctrlr), but am wondering why didn't they just instruct measurement from the pins on the sensor itself...

This is a thermistor type of switch/sensor right?

thanks,
