Humidity/In-car Temperature Sensor Quality
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Acura MDX, 2008 Acura MDX, and 2007 Acura MDX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The capacitance of the humidity sensor changes by the adsorption and the evaporation of moisture. The resistance change of the humidity sensor changes the output voltage.
