Construction

• A thermistor-type passenger compartment temperature sensor has been adopted.

  

• The passenger compartment temperature sensor is located on the lower panel (driver-side).

Operation

• The thermistor changes the resistance according to the surrounding temperature.

• The resistance decreases if the temperature increases, and increases if the temperature decreases.
