Where is the air conditioning temperature sensor located on the Baojun 730?

It is located at the air conditioning intake vent. Below is some additional related information: 1. Automotive temperature control switch: Utilizes high-quality bimetallic discs as temperature sensing elements. The water temperature switch is installed at a sensitive location on the radiator to dynamically monitor temperature changes in the coolant. The principle relies on the deformation of the bimetallic disc under temperature changes, with instantaneous switching at specific temperature points. This mechanism rapidly connects the contacts to activate the fan, cooling the radiator water and providing safety protection for the engine. The operating range of automotive temperature control switches is typically between 85~105°C. 2. Temperature controller: An electrical switching device that regulates the temperature in air-conditioned spaces. The controlled temperature range of temperature controllers generally falls between 18°C to 28°C.
I've been driving the Baojun 730 for several years. The air conditioning temperature sensor is usually hidden near the air conditioning control unit under the dashboard, specifically behind the center console or close to the glove box. You can feel it by removing the glove box—it's a small black block connected with wires, monitoring the cabin temperature. Last time when my AC airflow was abnormal, it turned out this sensor was dirty and affecting the readings. Cleaning it fixed the issue. For routine maintenance, it's best to check the sensor connector regularly to prevent dust buildup, otherwise, the AC might fluctuate between cold and hot, which is annoying, especially during summer driving. I recommend checking the owner's manual or visiting a repair shop for assistance. Those with good DIY skills can turn off the power before handling it.
