OAT SENSOR

Description

INFOID:0000000000954660

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

OAT (Outside Air Temperature) Sensor

The OAT sensor (1) is attached on the radiator core support. It
detects ambient temperature and converts it into a resistance value
which is then input into the auto amp.

OAT Sensor Circuit

AMBIENT TEMPERATURE INPUT PROCESS

The auto amp. includes a processing circuit for the OAT sensor input. However, when the temperature
detected by the OAT sensor increases quickly, the processing circuit retards the auto amp. function. It only
allows the auto amp. to recognize an ambient temperature increase of 0.33

°

C (0.6

°

F) per 100 seconds.

As an example, consider stopping for a few minutes after high speed driving. Although the actual ambient tem-
perature has not changed, the temperature detected by the OAT sensor will increase. This is because the heat
from the engine compartment can radiate to the front bumper area, location of the OAT sensor.
