Battery Temperature Sensor
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Nissan Leaf. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Battery temperature sensor is integrated in battery current sensor.
The sensor measures temperature around the battery.
This sensor uses a thermistor and its electrical resistance varies as the temperature varies. VCM detects a voltage change caused by the change in electrical resistance.
