With intrinsic giant anomalous Hall and Nernst effects, Weyl ferromagnet C02MnGa stands as an ideal candidate for exploring efficient charge-to-spin conversions. In this work, by utilizing the high-quality epitaxial C02MnGa single films, we observed a sizable unidirectional magnetoresistance. Surprisingly, the isotropic crystallographic axis dependence of unidirectional magnetoresistance, together with its linear scaling to the C02MnGa thickness, neither can be explained by the conventional spin current drift-diffusion process. By employing heat equation, we analytically derived the current induced vertical temperature gradient, and unambiguously show the thickness dependence of unidirectional magnetoresistance induced by anomalous Nernst effects. Our work provides direct evidences of thermoelectric voltages in the nonlinear transport that may be extended to other material systems as well.
