Where is the car air conditioning temperature sensor located?
1 Answers
In-car air conditioning temperature sensors are typically installed under the dashboard. Below are detailed introductions to components of the automotive air conditioning system: 1. Air conditioning pressure sensor: Usually installed after the dryer, it detects the hydraulic pressure of liquid refrigerant flowing through the expansion valve. Three wires: detect high and low pressure. When refrigerant leaks and compressor oil loss occur after a collision, to prevent compressor damage from oil starvation, it immediately cuts off compressor power upon detecting low pressure. When high pressure is detected, it reduces compressor power to avoid wasted work. 2. Air conditioning temperature sensor: Generally housed in the temperature sensing bulb, it functions as the evaporator temperature sensor. When cooling reaches a certain level, it shuts down the compressor to prevent frosting and eventual ice blockage from further refrigeration.
