HEATING / AIR CONDITIONING  AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM(for HV Model (8ZR-FXE))  B141A11  Room Temperature Sensor Circuit Short to Ground  


DESCRIPTION

The room temp. sensor (cooler thermistor) is installed in the instrument panel to detect the cabin temperature, which is used to control the air conditioning system. The resistance of the room temp. sensor (cooler thermistor) changes in accordance with the cabin temperature. As the temperature decreases, the resistance increases. As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases.

The air conditioning amplifier assembly applies voltage to the room temp. sensor (cooler thermistor) and reads voltage changes due to changes in the resistance of the room temp. sensor (cooler thermistor).
