outside air temp sensor
Just received a new outside air temp from Corvette Central. I would like for anyone with knowledge of where the sensor is located on the car. My car is a 2000 C5 coupe.

I found the easiest way to get to it was through the headlight. just remove the headlight shroud and reach down and you can unplug the sensor wires and relaese the pushpin that holds the sensor in place. You cansee the tip of the sensor from under the car on the passenger side near the radiator area. See diagram below for a better idea.

To all the members that responded to my question about the outside temp sensor, I send my thanks. Corvette Forum and its members are the best. It is comforting to know that there are people in the forum who are willing to help Corvette newbies.
