Mazda CX-5 Service & Repair Manual: Evaporator Temperature Sensor [Manual Air Conditioner]
Purpose
-
The evaporator temperature sensor detects the airflow temperature passing through the evaporator.
Function
-
The evaporator temperature sensor converts the detected temperature to an electric signal.
Construction
-
A thermistor-type evaporator temperature sensor has been adopted.
-
A fin-thermo-type sensor has been adopted to the sensor area of the evaporator temperature sensor which inserts between the evaporator fins.
-
The evaporator temperature sensor is installed to the A/C unit.
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.
