Outside temperature sensor problems due to SC
I have an A&A SC system installed and fine my outside air temperature is way off. I’m sure it has to do with the new intercooler and shroud. From a forum search I know it’s on passenger side up front near radiator but I have no idea what it looks like. Anyone have a picture of it and more precise location? Where should I move it to in order to get a better reading?

Check this out for a recent discussion, http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-c...th-the-c6.html
When your SC kit was installed, the installer probably either zip-tied your sensor somewhere near the original location (like I did) or "forgot" and left it hanging by the wire harness. The temp sensor is located on the passenger side just in front of the A/C condenser. It looks like the pointed end of a golf tee, painted black. Pretty good photo here from APS, http://www.airpowersystems.com/guide...c6-tts06/4.jpg
Keep in mind that your fan shroud is no longer there with the A&A kit and the sensor may not be in the OEM location.
