Cabin temperature sensor location

Hey guys, my auto climate control isn't working properly, the AC will only come on if I set the temperature at LO or 61 and I'm thinking it's a problem with the temp sensor inside the car.

Does anyone know where the sensor is located?

Just out of curiosity, what makes you think there is one? I always assumed they just varied the temperature of the air coming out of the vents. Now I'm curious to know if there actually is a temp sensor somewhere...
If you think about it, how would they do dual zone climate control? Unless they put a temp sensor like in the passenger seat, there's really no way to detect the temp in the passenger/driver areas.

There I'll be two sensors That is the only way to be able to set each side to a specific temperature instead of just hotter or colder. Now I am on a quest for where they are.

Edit: Easy. Pages 41 and 42. Possibly more but that is a couple.
