Humidity/In-Car Temperature Sensor

The humidity sensor consists of two sensors. One is for humidity detection, and the other is for in-car temperature detection. When the climate control unit receives the signals about the in-car condition from the humidity sensor, and judges that the humidity in the vehicle is very low, the climate control unit reduces the compressor runtime. Engine power loss is kept to a minimum, and fuel economy is increased.
