Title: Automatic air conditioning: incorrect temperature measurement
Post by: Lookitt on 20 March 2025, 19:54:54

Hello,
The outside temperature sensor is reading 69° Celsius (156° Fahrenheit) when the actual outside temperature is 13° Celsius (55° Fahrenheit). It may be out of service. What is surprising is that my automatic air conditioning only sends hot air when I set the inside temperature to 27 or 28°C (82° Fahrenheit). At 25 or 26° (77° Fahrenheit) it's a very cold air comes out of the nozzles. Could the problem be related to the outside temperature sensor problem?

The external temp sensor is mounted in the centre of the front bumper. If it gets dislodged by a puddle or something it will end up against the Aircon condenser/radiator and will be significantly warmer than the air in front of the car.

Thank you very much for your answers.
I'll start with the outdoor sensor and then see what happens with the air conditioning.
