Replacement
1.
Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
2.
Remove the engine room front under cover (A) by loosening the mounting bolts.

3.
Disconnect the connector and then remove the ambient temperature sensor (A).

4.
Installation is the reverse order of removal.

    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.

    Description Achieve exclusion function on croaker before fogging occurrence. Senses vehicles rational moisture and proves watch security and amenities.
