Ambient Sensor

AMBIENT SENSOR




The ambient sensor uses a thermistor to detect the ambient temperature and outputs a signal corresponding the detected temperature to the auto A/C control module.

The thermistor is covered with a plastic molding to increase its thermal capacity, thus preventing it from being too sensitive to rapid changes in the temperature and enabling the sensor to output an average ambient temperature.




The ambient sensor is attached to the radiator lower panel at the portion where the radiator panel is located in such a way that it is exposed to outside air most efficiently.
