Air temp sensor
« on: 29 March 2010, 09:22:26 »
Where is this located?  Mine keeps saying F instead of the temp, and then seems to start at 69 degrees, dropping to around 45 degrees when it feels like working..  It deffo faulty I reckon!

thanks!

No, quite accessable, they just clip into a hole on the edge of the bumper.

Face lift cars have their sensor in the middlle of the bumper, you can see it if you lift the bonnet & look down.  :y

I have a few spare sensors if you need one. Kept changing mine but turned out to be a dodgy wire in the wiring loom. Also, the connector that plugs into the sensor can sometimes let water in if the seal is knackered.
