Say you set 26C. On a hot day, that 26C will make the aircon compressor compensate by running the compressor much harder because the "external" sensor thinks "boy it's a really hot day".

On a cool day, the "external" sensor says "I don't really think he wants cold air right now" and runs the compressor under light load. The internal sensor thinks the temperature is just fine because it is located lower down where cold air sinks.

I think you can get over this problem by putting a small piece of cardboard over the sensor located on top of the dashboard.

Hi Bro, where is the external sensor near the windscreen?  Understand that the sensor under the windscreen in front of the passenger seat is for lighting to activate auto-on headlamp?

clarence:
There is no auto headlamp on feature for Latio.

It is avail in Cefiro.

My CVT has auto headlamp and the sensor is below the windscreen of the passenger side. Understand the 4AT doesn't have....right? By the way, complained to TCM on my last 5k servicing (last month) that the AC was not cold and in the service report, it indicated an AC Temp reset was done. Have been driving at 27C and it can get quite cold on rainy days.
