id0740a1004200
Purpose/Function
• The ambient temperature sensor converts the detected air temperature to an electric signal.
Construction
• A thermistor-type ambient temperature sensor has been adopted.
• The ambient temperature sensor is located on the shroud panel on the back side of the front bumper.
Operation
• The thermistor changes the resistance according to the surrounding temperature.
• The resistance decreases if the temperature increases, and increases if the temperature decreases.
Fail-safe
• Not applicable
