Description
The outside temperature sensor is located behind the center of the front bumper. The gauge assembly uses measurements from this sensor to display the outside air temperature.
Because of the location of the sensor, it may be affected by heat reflection from the road, engine and radiator heat, or hot exhaust from surrounding traffic.
These conditions can heat soak the outside air temperature sensor and cause inaccurate readings. Logic has been written into the gauge assembly to help prevent abnormal of fluctuating outside air temperature indicator readings.
