How does this affect my car and where is it located


Thanks team
 
When you put the climate control on automatic, it automatically decides when to recirculate the air or not based on air quality coming in (or maybe inside the cabin). The car measures the quality of the air using this sensor, I'm not sure where abouts its located but I'm guessing it would be within the climate control unit itself?
