Hyundai Elantra: Air Conditioning System / Evaporator Temperature Sensor
Description and operation
The evaporator temperature sensor will detect the evaporator core temperature and interrupt compressor relay power in order to prevent evaporator from freezing by excessive cooling. The evaporator temperature sensor has the Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC). Electrical resistivity of NTC will increase with decreasing temperature and decrease with increasing temperature.

Repair procedures
| 1. | Turn the ignition switch ON. |
| 2. | Turn the A/C switch ON. |
| 3. | Measure the resistance between terminal "+" and "-" of the evaporator temperature sensor.

If towing is necessary, we recommend
you have it done by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer or a commercial tow
truck service.
If towing service is not available in
an emergency, your vehicle may be
temporarily towed using a cable or chain
secured to the emergency towing hook
at the front (or rear) of the vehicle...
If you place the ignition switch in the
ACC or OFF position with the headlamps
ON, the headlamps (and/or parking
lamps) remain on for about 5 minutes.
However, with the engine off if the
driver’s door is opened and closed, the
headlamps (and/or parking lamps) are
turned off after 15 seconds...
