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

Blower Motor Inspection [Full Auto Air Conditioner]Planetary Gear [Fw6 A EL, Fw6 Ax EL]
Purpose/Function
The planetary gear is a mechanism which shifts the drive force from the engine.
The planetary gear consists of multiple gears which rotate individually while
revolving. By controlling the individual rotation and revolving of the gears,
the transaxle performs gear shi ...
ABS Wheel Speed Sensor And ABS Sensor Rotor
Purpose/Function
The ABS wheel-speed sensor and ABS sensor rotor detect the rotation condition
of each wheel and transmit this information to the DSC HU/CM.
The signal from the ABS wheel-speed sensor is the primary signal that the
DSC HU/CM uses when carrying out control.

Wheel Balance Adjustment (Aluminum Alloy Wheel)
CAUTION:
Adjust the outer wheel balance first, then the inner wheel balance.
Be careful not to scratch the wheels.
Adhesive-type Balance Weight (Outer)
1. Remove the old balance weight from the wheel.
2. Remove the double-sided adhesive tape remaining on the wheel, then ...
