Outside air temp
My outside air temp is reading wrong. Where is the sensor/pickup? Is that the one that pokes into the radiator shroud on the right side down low? The panel was changed a while back for being dim, but when it is 100 degrees out it reads like 68. I either have a loose wire or dirty terminals or the sensor is toasted!
Any one have experience with this?

Re: Outside air temp (BlueDragon)
There are a number of pictures and links in this thread that will answer all your questions. I changed mine about 4 weeks ago, and it took about 10 min.

Re: Outside air temp (Tigger)
Thanks Tigger,
Finally got off my dead butt and opened up the manuals. reseated the connector, and will check it out. If it still acts up I will change it later today. I was concerned that it was a input for something other than the AC but it appears that only the AC head uses it! and for $8 bucks, I will swing into the dealership and pick one up. The thread you sent was useful, will save me a bunch of time.

Ah, reseated the corn-necter and it seems to have healed for the time being. Interesting little gizmo and the check out routine for the AC system, reads like a launch plan for a space ship in the maint manual!
