Outside Temp Sensor
My outside temp reads a constant 69 degrees. I think the wires by the sensor near the intercooler got disconnected somehow. I cannot find the friggin' wires though. Anybody know exactly where I should look? (The only wires I can find go to the hood light).
Thanks

and the sensor is very cheap. I think I paid 8 bucks (or there abouts) at the dealership. I had my car in for the Column Lock recall and he put it in for free.

So I should be able to see it in plain view if I am looking straight up at the radiator shroud from underneath the car. I wonder if it's gone then. 
What does it look like? (Anyone have a pic??)

That's it. You may be able to see the wires by opening the hood and looking down the side of the radiator shroud.

I think my sensor is gone...
Probably when I replaced and lowered the radiator when I upgraded the blower.
