Charge air temperature sensor function - GF07.04-P-5039-02H

B17/8 Charge air temperature sensor 

The NTC resistor (b) integrated in the charge air temperature sensor (B17/8) alters its electrical resistance in line with the charge air temperature.

NTC means egative Temperature oefficient; i.e. the electrical resistance becomes less as the temperature rises (heat conductor).
