Outside temp sensor wanted (Read 912 times)

bobdent Omega Lord Offline Drives better than an Omega Posts: 6705 A pub in Hertfordshire Gender: Drives: 2002 3.2 MV6 Irmscher Estate	Outside temp sensor wanted 26. Jan 2010 at 09:24 Not sure if the sensors I've got are faulty or there's a bad connection in the connector that plugs into it. Tried fitting a spare sensor I had but still no function. Has anyone got a spare sensor with connector they could sell me? Cheers, Bob

Jan 2010 at 09:37 Only from what I've learned on here, but I think there's another connector a few feet further back from the actual sensor that has a habit of corroding. A new sensor is only about £6 though

It did but it corroded again so I've since cleaned and redone the connection but still no function. I suspect it may be the connector that plugs into the sensor. If it's not the sensor or connector then I'm at a bit of a loss as to why it won't function unless as Andy said in his post, there's another sensor further back. Undecided

Thanks Andy but if there was another connector, it's already been chopped out as the only connector there now is the one I put in.

I had to bypass the connector further back to get my external temp sensor working.
