Purpose
The passenger compartment temperature sensor detects the cabin temperature.
Function
The passenger compartment temperature sensor converts the detected temperature to an electric signal.
Construction
A thermistor-type passenger compartment temperature sensor has been adopted.
The passenger compartment temperature sensor is installed to the lower panel (driver’s side).
Construction/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.

Electric Power Steering System
Outline
A column assist type EPS has been adopted for all models.
EPS provides smooth handling from low to high speeds as a result of the excellent
steering feel provided by the electronic control and the vehicle-speed responsive
control.
EPS does not require a power ste ...
