DTC B1417: Evaporator Temperature Circuit [12/2013 - 11/2016]: Description
The No. 2 air conditioning harness assembly is installed on the evaporator in the rear air conditioner unit to detect the temperature of the cooled air that has passed through the evaporator, which is used to control the air conditioning system. It sends signals to the air conditioning amplifier assembly. The resistance of the No. 2 air conditioning harness assembly changes in accordance with the temperature of the cooled air that has passed through the evaporator. As the temperature decreases, the resistance increases. As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases.
The air conditioning amplifier assembly applies voltage (5 V) to the No. 2 air conditioning harness assembly and reads voltage changes as the resistance of the No. 2 air conditioning harness assembly changes. This sensor is used for frost prevention.
