Mazda CX-5 Service & Repair Manual: Ambient Temperature Sensor [Full Auto Air Conditioner]
Purpose
-
The ambient temperature sensor detects the ambient temperature.
Function
-
The ambient temperature sensor converts the detected temperature to an electric signal.
Construction
-
A thermistor-type ambient temperature sensor has been adopted.
-
The ambient temperature sensor is installed to the shroud panel on the back side of the front bumper.
Operation
-
The thermistor changes the resistance according to the surrounding temperature.
-
The resistance decreases if the temperature increases, and conversely increases if the temperature decreases as shown in the figure.
Fail-safe
-
Function not equipped.

Engine Coolant Protection Inspection
1. Measure the engine coolant temperature and specific gravity using a thermometer
and a hydrometer.
CAUTION:
Use engine coolant at a concentration that meets the environmental conditions
in which the vehicle is driven, otherwise engine damage could occur.

Pressure Control Valve Inspection [Skyactiv G 2.0]
1. Remove the pressure control valve assembly..
CAUTION:
Do not apply a pressure 36 kPa {0.37 kgf/cm2, 5.2 psi} or more. Doing so
will damage the pressure control valve and evaporative hose.
2. Apply a pressure of 36 kPa {0.37 kgf/cm2, 5.2 psi} to port A.
3. Verify that ther ...
