WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Mazda 6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Measure the temperature around the passenger compartment temperature sensor.
Measure the resistance between terminals of the passenger compartment temperature sensor.
- If the resistance is not as shown in the graph, replace the passenger compartment temperature sensor.
