Outside Temperature Sensor Reading
« on: 01 February 2010, 17:58:59 »
My Car - 2001 2.6 Omega.

Currently not showing the outside temp on the display, It has an F there instead.

I have changed the sensor behind the bumper twice now and the fault is still there.

I take it you just unplug the sensor and plug the new one in ?? And all should work.

Has anyone any Ideas on what else I could try to get this rectified ????

Steve.

Just a case of testing the wiring then... Probably a bad connection in the loom. IIRCC there is another plug further back in the loom ;) ;)

Big connector, passenger side, near the bumper bottom.check it for water ingress etc.

This will also affect the climate operation

Thats why my climate went silly whilst the outside temp sensor started reading 65 deg..
