2020 Cadillac CT6 Ambient Air Temperature Sensors

ACDelco GM Original Equipment Ambient Air Temperature Sensors are used with automatic climate control systems. The sensors provide the HVAC system controller with outside air temperature, allowing the controller to modify the climate-control strategy. The sensors may also provide the signal for the outside temperature in the driver information display. This original equipment ambient air temperature sensor is a GM-recommended replacement for your vehicle’s original components and has been manufactured to fit your GM vehicle, providing the same performance, durability, and service life you expect from General Motors.

Product Features:

• Repairs the outside temperature display function caused by failed ambient temp sensor
• GM-recommended replacement part for your GM vehicle’s original factory component
• Offering the quality, reliability, and durability of GM OE
• Manufactured to GM OE specification for fit, form, and function

The temperature of various systems must be reported to the engine control module (ECM) as well as other operating system controllers in the vehicle. Coolant temperature, cabin temperature, exhaust temperature and ambient temperature are just a few systems reported by a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor is fed 5 volts by the systems computer, within the sensor housing will be a thermistor, or dropping resistor whose resistance value will change as the temperature surrounding it changes. Changing resistance in the circuit will change the volt signal at the processor indicating the current operating value.

Product Features:

• Product constructed to meet all design and operating characteristics as intended by the vehicle manufacturer.
• 100% thermo-shock and vibration tested to ensure superior performance in extreme conditions.
• 100% end-of-line tested to ensure accurate signal output providing product reliability, every time.
• Tin plated lead frame prevents corrosion and ensures a reliable terminal connection under adverse ambient conditions.
• Lead frame terminal size and location determined using image dimension measuring system or 3D laser scanner.
• Application matched components ensures system operation in like new condition.

This ambient air temperature sensor is designed to match the fit and function of the original sensor on specified vehicles, and is engineered for durability and reliable performance.
