DescriptionThe auto defogging sensor is installed on front window glass. The sensor judges and sends signal if moisture occurs to blow out wind for defogging. The air conditioner control module receives a signal from the sensor and restrains moisture and eliminates defog by the intake actuator, A/C, auto defogging actuator, blower motor rpm and mod
DescriptionIn ordinary cars, the mechanical water pump mounted on the engine for heating purposes is activated to circulate the cooling water, but in hybrid cars, AEWP is used to circulate the cooling water when the engine is not operating. Classification System Cooling water used
