- The air temperature sensor, located at the front of the engine radiator, detects ambient air temperature. It is a negative type thermistor; resistance will increase with lower temperatures, and decrease with higher temperatures.
- The sensor output will be used for discharge temperature sensor, sensor fail-safe, temperature regulation door control, blower motor level control, mix mode control and in-car humidity control.
- R25°C: 30Kohm; +/- 3%
- B(0/25): 3754K +/- 2%
- Operation Temp. range: -30°C ~ 80°C
