DTC B1411: Room Temperature Sensor Circuit [04/2018 -]: Description
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
The cooler (room temp. sensor) 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 cooler (room temp. sensor) 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 (5 V) to the cooler (room temp. sensor) thermistor and reads voltage changes due to changes in the resistance of the cooler (room temp. sensor) thermistor.
