Camry :: 2004 Ambient Air Temperature Sensor Location?
Nov 26, 2015
Where is this located? This is the sensor that reads the outside air temp for inside display. Looked between radiator and bumper cover pretty thoroughly.

My 2001 Hyundai Santa Fe V6 is giving out a P0118 code, and the "freeze-frame" data reports a -40F for the coolant temperature. That doesn't make sense so perhaps the sensor is faulty or perhaps the sensor connector is loose?
I'd like to take a look at the coolant temperature sensor but I cannot find it. I have scoured hmaservice, hyunda-forums but all the various pics are still not clear enough for me to actually find the sensor. I have seen all the online pics from Hyundai but I can't get my head around exactly where the sensor is - the pics are either too zoomed in or so many things have been disconnected for the purposes of taking the picture I can't get my bearings.

Wife's car threw a p0711 code. It says temp sensor failure or whatever. I found the part on rockauto for 22 bucks but that's not the issue. I've tried searching about this and I seem to find some stuff about elantras and sonatas. I can't seem to find anything specific to a accent. I've read that it's inside the transmission which is fine I've changed valves before and such on old rwd transmissions. But some things I find say it's on the bottom and some say the side. Also wiring is mentioned pretty often with service bulletins.

My truck has a bit of an interesting trait. Unless it's just about freezing, my transmission is just about always at operating temperature. If it's 50*F outside and I start the truck, the Trans temp is smack dab in the middle. If it's 30*F outside it starts just a little above cold then is "warmed up" when I drive it down my short street block, which ain't right.
All the rest of the time, it's always reading middle of the bar temperature. My old 5.4L never did this. My 7.3L does. Best I can tell is it's a fault in the temperature sensor for the transmission. I don't have a scan gauge yet to get the readings but will be getting one. Just need to know where the sensor is at so I can have a starting point.
Passat (B5) :: 2003 - Calculated Ambient Air Temperature Too Low?
I drive a 2003 Passat (B5.5) 1.6 petrol (102HP)
I noticed the problem now, because I wanted to test the electric cooling fan (part 8D0 959 455 R). I want to test it because I have changed the carbon brushes that was worn out in the motor. The fan is now reinstalled in the car and just waiting for some voltage through the standard wire harness. To make this fan spin I figured I could just activate the A/C compressor by setting the Climatronic in "LO" (no ECON). Because it is below freezing outside, I drove my car inside a heated parking garage and let it stay there for an hour or two. For some reason the A/C compressor does not start when I go "LO", even if the car is warm and placed in a warm environment. I noticed that the outside air temperature indicator in the instrument panel and on Climatronic LCD-display showed -3 'Celcius (Just below 32 'F).
After some internet searching I thought that one or both of the air temperature sensors (G17 and G89) were at fault. However, they both seem to be ok. (I even measured the resistance of the ambient temperature sensor, G17, with a DMM and it had the correct value of 1.25 kohm @ 20 'Celcius and 3.8 kohms @ -3.5 'C). In VAG-COM, I read the relevant measuring blocks (08-Auto HVAC, Group 6) for the sensors, and they both show plausible temperatures. See enclosed VAG-COM screenshot. The calculated temperature however (as shown on the cars instrument and Climatronic displays) is way low. A couple of times, calculated temperature has been exactly 10,0 'C. This temperature is identical to the substitute value in case of double sensor signal failure (according to VAG Self Study Program 208 part II, page 48)
The calculated temp looks correct around freezing point (0'C/32'F) and colder, but never catches up when the car is taken to the warm garage. I even logged the relevant temp info in VAG-COM when I was driving in and out of the warm garage. See enclosed chart screenshot from MS Excel.
I have tried to disconnect the battery for 15-20 minutes, but that did not fix the problem. Is it possible that the circuits that calculate the outside temperature get different sensor temperature values than the OBD system gets and shows me through VAG-COM? When the temperature problem is solved, I can continue to check if my electric cooling fan works...
Prius (Gen 2) :: 2007 AC Turned On And Air Blowing Out Of Vent Ambient Temperature
I have a 2007 Prius. I turned on the AC for the first time this spring last week and the air blowing out of the vent was ambient temperature. When I looked through the sight glass with the AC running, it looks like there's fluid in there, but it's not moving anywhere and the evaporator pipe did not feel cool. I also replaced the 12 V battery a few months ago, with an optima yellow top battery.
What's wrong with the AC? Will a recharge do it fix this, or did I mess something up with the battery. There were a lot of warnings about "resetting" the system after you have the 12V out, but I didn't seem to have any problems that were described as symptomatic of needing a reset.
Ford A/C :: 1996 F350 - Air Coming Out Warmed Up To Ambient Temperature
I have a 96 F350 Crewcab longbed 4x4 and about a week ago I noticed that at idle speed (ie stopping at a stop light) the temperature of the air coming out of the A/C warmed up to ambient temperature. When I accelerated and held highway speed the air would cool back down. i listened for the clutch to engage and it would engage for 1 second and then disengage for 5 seconds. i hooked up one of those cheap gauges from auto zone. With the truck running the clutch would engage at 40 stay on until it went to 20 and the shut off. Also the A/C has completely quit cooling. By the way its HOT here.

I have a 2007 Camry Hybrid with ~150k miles, 4-cyl engine and last week the water temp gauge starting fluctuating erratically...going from extremely hot to cold and vice versa. It eventually tripped the check engine light and autozone said it was p0117 - Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Circuit Low Input. At one point the engine was really shaking the whole car. I haven't driven the car as a result.
I have ordered a new ECT sensor and it should arrive this week. the problem is I can't find where the sensor is located... I have looked all over this forum, google, the internet, nothing. I have looked in a Chilton's manual but it doesn't have a diagram.

Passat (B5) :: Car Won't Get Signal From The Outdoor Ambient Temp Sensor
So I'm at a momentary loss for what's wrong. My wife's '02 Passat GLX is not getting a signal from the outdoor ambient temp sensor. Both her cluster and climate control display show "--" and I've replaced the sensor, cleaned the connector and done a brief outside inspection of the wiring from their to the engine bay harness which all looks fine... In the cars defense, were the second owners, it's been dealer maintained and is in immaculate condition so there is no oil soaked or ghetto hacked wiring, period..
View 3 RepliesMercedes-benz - C-class :: 1996 - Outside Ambient Air Sensor Gone Bad
I have a 1996 Mercedes C280. The outside ambient air sensor has gone bad and now reads about 30 degrees F high. There are two types of sensors for this model and year. One is a plug-in sensor that looks like a small pointy cone. The other is a long cable with a metal cylinder at the end that looks like an old-style stereo headphones jack (the thick kind). I have this second type.
I would like to know whether, instead of replacing the whole wire and sensor combination, which involves taking out the instrument cluster and rerunning the wire, I can simply cut off the wire at the sensor end and solder in a new sensor (cut off from a new part).
I am wondering whether it would be possible to just cut the existing cable near the sensor end and then solder in one of the pointy cones. There is a youtube video that shows replacement of a similar type of pointy cone sensor on a BMW, and it looks like the assembly that accepts the sensor is the same, so if I couldn't find a Mercedes plug-in receiver assembly for my old car, I could maybe use the BMW one and then plug in the Mercedes sensor. That would let me do another plug-in later without resoldering.
Since this sensor has gone bad once before, I have to think that a replacement won't last more than five years or so.
I am not sure whether the outside temperature has an effect on other aspects of the car, such as injection mix. I presume it has to go through the on-board computer, because it must be the signal for the little snowflake that appears on the dash when the outside temperature drops to freezing at the road level. Whether leaving the sensor alone and just living with a high reading will cause problems? Right now when the outside temp is around 70 degrees F the sensor reads about 105 degrees F.
