AMBIENT SENSOR
Component DescriptionINFOID:0000000005147718
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Ambient Sensor
The ambient sensor (1) is attached on the radiator core support (left
side). It detects ambient temperature and converts it into a value
which is then input into the A/C auto amp.
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE INPUT PROCESS
The A/C auto amp. includes a processing circuit for the ambient sensor input. However, when the temperature
detected by the ambient sensor increases quickly, the pr ocessing circuit retards the A/C auto amp. function. It
only allows the A/C auto amp. to recognize an ambient temperature increase of 0.33°C (0.6 °F) per 100 sec-
onds.
This prevents constant adjustments due to momentary conditions, such as stopping after high speed driving.
Although the actual ambient temperature has not changed, the temperature detected by the ambient sensor
will increase. This is because the heat from the engine comp artment can radiate to the front grille area, loca-
tion of the ambient sensor.
Ambient Sensor Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000005147719
Regarding Wiring Diagram information, refer to HAC-91, "Wiring Diagram".
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE FOR AMBIENT SENSOR
SYMPTOM: Ambient sensor circuit is open or shorted. (40 or 41 is
indicated on A/C auto amp. as a result of conducting the A/C auto
amp. self-diagnosis)

In-vehicle Sensor
The in-vehicle sensor (1) is located on the lower instrument panel
LH. It converts variations in
temperature of passenger compartment
air (drawn in through the integrated fan) into a resistance value. It is
then input into the A/C auto amp.

Regarding Wiring Diagram information, refer to HAC-91, "Wiring Diagram".
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE FOR IN-VEHICLE SENSOR
SYMPTOM: In-vehicle sensor circuit is open or shorted. Using the
CONSULT-III, DTC B2578 or B2579 is displayed. Without a CON-
SULT-III, code 30, 31, 44 or 46 is indicated on A/C auto amp. as a
result of conducting self-diagnosis.
1.CHECK IN-VEHICLE SENSOR CIRCUIT
Is self-diagnosis DTC B2578 or B2579 (with CONSULT-III) or code 30, 31 44 or 46 (without CONSULT-III)
present?
YES or NO?
YES >> GO TO 6.
NO >> GO TO 2.

OPTICAL SENSOR
Component DescriptionINFOID:0000000005147724
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
The optical sensor (1) is located in the center of the defroster grille. It
detects sunload entering through windshield by means of a photo
diode. The sensor converts the sunload into a current value which is
then input into the A/C auto amp.
OPTICAL INPUT PROCESS
The A/C auto amp. includes a processing circuit which averages the variations in detected sunload over a
period of time. This prevents adjustments in the ATC system operation due to small or quick variations in
detected sunload.
For example, consider driving along a road bordered by an occasional group of large trees. The sunload
detected by the optical sensor will vary whenever the tr ees obstruct the sunlight. The processing circuit aver-
ages the detected sunload over a period of time, so that the (insignificant) effect of the trees momentarily
obstructing the sunlight does not cause any change in t he ATC system operation. On the other hand, shortly
after entering a long tunnel, the system will recognize the change in sunload, and the system will react accord-
ingly.
Optical Sensor Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000005147725
Regarding Wiring Diagram information, refer to HAC-91, "Wiring Diagram".
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE FOR OPTICAL SENSOR
SYMPTOM: Optical sensor circuit is open or shorted. Using the
CONSULT-III, DTC B257F or B2580 is displayed. Without a CON-
SULT-III, code 50 or 52 is indicated on A/C auto amp. as a result of
conducting self-diagnosis.
