Kia Sportage: Ambient Sensor: Repair procedures
2.
Disconnect ambient temperature sensor.
3.
Check the resistance of ambient temperature sensor between
terminals 1 and 2 whether it is changed by changing of the ambient
temperature.

Specification
Ambient temperature [°C(°F)] Resistance between terminals 1and 2 (k?) -30(-22) 507 -20(-4) 284.5 -10(14) 164.2 0 (32) 97.5 10 (50) 59.6 20 (68) 37.46 30(86) 24.18 40(104) 16 50(122) 10.83
4.
If the measured resistance is not specification, substitute
with a known-good ambient temperature sensor and check for proper
operation.
5.
If the problem is corrected, replace the ambient temperature sensor.
1.
Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
2.
Disconnect the connector and then remove the ambient temperature sensor (A).
3.
Installation is the reverse order of removal.
Description
1.
The ambient temperature sensor is located at the front of the
condenser and detects ambient air temperature. It is a negative type
thermistor; resistance will increase with lowe ...
