It contains a thermistor which measures the temperature of the inside. The signal,decided by the resistance value which changes in accordance with perceived inside temperature, is delivered to heater control unit. According to this signal, the control unit regulates incar temperature to intended value.
Air conditioner Control Module sets DTC B1234 if Incar temperature sensor has been detected over 4.9V for 4 seconds.
