Outside Air
Temperature
Sensor (OAT)
This sensor measures the temperature outside
the passenger compartment and is usually
mounted inside or near the front bumper
or in the side mirror. The sensor relays the
outside air temperature to the controller of the
automatic HVAC systems. The controller uses
this temperature to help control the interior
temperature of the vehicle. The sensor also
provides the vehicle occupants with temperature
readings from outside the car. This information
is particularly useful when driving under near
freezing or freezing conditions.
