DTC

B1419/19

Rear Room Temperature Sensor Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The cooler (duct sensor) thermistor (rear room temperature sensor) is installed in the rear panel to detect the rear room temperature and control the heater and air conditioner AUTO mode. The resistance of the cooler (duct sensor) thermistor (rear room temperature sensor) changes in accordance with the rear room temperature. As the temperature decreases, the resistance increases. As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases.

The air conditioning amplifier applies a voltage (5 V) to the cooler (duct sensor) thermistor (rear room temperature sensor) and reads voltage changes as changes in the resistance of the cooler (duct sensor) thermistor (rear room temperature sensor).

INSPECT COOLER (DUCT SENSOR) THERMISTOR (REAR ROOM TEMPERATURE SENSOR)


(a) Remove the cooler (duct sensor) thermistor (rear room temperature sensor) HEATING / AIR CONDITIONING: ROOM TEMPERATURE SENSOR (for Rear Side): REMOVAL (2008 Sequoia) .

(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection

Condition

Specified Condition

1 (+) - 2 (-)

10°C (50°F)

3.00 to 3.73 kΩ

15°C (59°F)

2.45 to 2.88 kΩ

20°C (68°F)

1.95 to 2.30 kΩ

25°C (77°F)

1.60 to 1.80 kΩ

30°C (86°F)

1.28 to 1.47 kΩ

35°C (95°F)

1.00 to 1.22 kΩ

40°C (104°F)

0.80 to 1.00 kΩ

45°C (113°F)

0.65 to 0.85 kΩ

50°C (122°F)

0.50 to 0.70 kΩ

55°C (131°F)

0.44 to 0.60 kΩ

60°C (140°F)

0.36 to 0.50 kΩ

HINT:

  • Touching the sensor even slightly may change the resistance value. Be sure to hold the connector of the sensor.
  • When measuring, the sensor temperature must be the same as the ambient temperature.
  • As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases (see the graph).

(c) Reinstall the cooler (duct sensor) thermistor (rear room temperature sensor).

OK

3.

CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (REAR ROOM TEMPERATURE SENSOR - AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER)


(a) Disconnect the O15 cooler (duct sensor) thermistor (rear room temperature sensor) connector.

(b) Disconnect the H67 air conditioning amplifier connector.

(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection

Condition

Specified Condition

O15-1 - H67-17 (TR)

Always

10 kΩ or higher

O15-2 or H67-7 (SG-6) - Body ground

Always

10 kΩ or higher

(d) Reconnect the air conditioning amplifier connector.

(e) Reconnect the cooler (duct sensor) thermistor (rear room temperature sensor) connector.
