Battery Temperature Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Infiniti Q50. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The battery temperature sensors are installed inside the battery pack. They measure the temperature inside the battery pack and the intake temperature.

The sensor uses a thermistor with a resistance value that varies according to changes in temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor decreases as the temperature increases.
