Partly.. and I don't know quite how significant or otherwise it is. I suspect it will hold the Climate (Aircon) off if outside too cold for one...logically? The system is under software central control so its impossible to know exactly what does what really.

An example where the Blower Motor speed could be wrong due to faulty OAT sensor.
Automatic Mode
In the automatic mode, the blower motor speed is calculated by the auto amp. based on the input from the PBR, in-vehicle sensor, sunload sensor, intake sensor and OAT sensor.
The blower motor applied voltage ranges from approximately 4 V (lowest speed) to 12 V (highest speed).
The control blower speed (in the range of 4 to 12 V), auto amp. supplies a gate voltage to the fan control amp.
Based on this voltage, fan control amp. control voltage supplied to the blower motor.
