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

Tcs Control
Outline
The TCS control actuates torque reduction through engine control, as well
as using brake control to control traction.
NOTE:
Engine control: Engine output is lowered by fuel cut and ignition timing
control to reduce the traction, preventing driving wheel slip.
