Mazda CX-5 Service & Repair Manual: Ambient Temperature Sensor [Full Auto Air Conditioner]
Purpose
-
The ambient temperature sensor detects the ambient temperature.
Function
-
The ambient temperature sensor converts the detected temperature to an electric signal.
Construction
-
A thermistor-type ambient temperature sensor has been adopted.
-
The ambient temperature sensor is installed to 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 conversely increases if the temperature decreases as shown in the figure.
Fail-safe
-
Function not equipped.
