A: Sweat glands and fatty layers in the skin help to regulate body temperature in mammals. When the outside temperature is high, sweat glands release bodily fluids combined with salt to keep the body temperature from getting too high.
The ambient temperature sensor is a variable resistor that works on a five-volt reference signal that is delivered to it by the Body Control Module (BCM). The resistance in the sensor adjusts to the change in temperature, changing the temperature sensor signal circuit voltage to the BCM. Depending on the resistance in the sensor, the BCM senses a certain voltage on the temperature sensor signal circuit, which it is programmed to match a certain temperature.
