Component Function Within The System
  • Ambient sensor measures ambient air temperature.
  • Ambient sensor transmits the ambient sensor signal to the combination meter.
 
 
Individual Component Function
Ambient sensor measures ambient air temperature.
 
 
Component Operation
Ambient sensor uses a thermistor which is sensitive to the change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor decreases as temperature increases.
 
 
Component Parts Location
Ambient sensor is installed to back side of the front bumper. Refer to Component Parts Location.
