Default How do I fix B0338 ?

My A/C is taking a few days off, I think. and I not sure if the inside air temp has anything to do with it or not. How can I fix it. Thanks for any help.

DTC B0338 Inside Air Temperature Sensor Open

That's the sensor located on the right side of the steering wheel and to the left of the ignition switch. Perhaps the connector came off somehow? You will have to remove the center console bezel and then the driver's knee bolster to get to the back where the connector plugs into the sensor. It's not that bad though.

I imagine an open sensor can cause temp issues, but several people are reporting the driver side is warmer due to low R134a. It sounds strange, but too many people have fixed the problem by simply adding refrigerant.
