Description

1. | The ambient temperature sensor is located at the front of the condenser and detects ambient air temperature. It is a negative type thermistor; resistance will increase with lower temperature, and decrease with higher temperatures.

2. | The sensor output will be used for discharge temperature control, temperature regulation door control, blower motor level control, mix mode control and in-car humidity control.

If the ambient temperature is below 0°C (32.0°F), the A/C compressor will be stopped.
The compressor will be operated by manual operating.
