- ve s1.5 berlina wagon
Hi all,
I got a s1.5 berlina wagon recently but I'm having issues with the outside temp sensor. A workshop read the codes for me and that's the only one that's come up
When i hit the outside temp button on the console the display just shows 3 dashes.
I've pulled out the sensor (it's through the air vent gap along the bottom of the front bumper on the drivers' side, next to and below the front headlight, right?) & checked the resistance (~440ohm), I applied hot and cold and the resistance changed so it seems ok
I put a bent wire into the connector and checked the outside temp on the console again but no change. Seems to me the sensor is fine and it's something else in that circuit. The connector looks fine, wires going into it look fine.
I traced the cable going into the fuse box - but I couldnt figure out which fuse is the one to check.. any suggestions? And is there anything else I can do to check?
