So glad you made this video. Solved many questions I had about my car issues. You are a life saver!!!

Love your channel my man. I have a semi truck and it said my ambient air temperature electrical fault. Outside temps don't even pop up. This was a great video to educate me on what this issue was. Thank you so much

Who even thought of making this unimportant item screw up a cars operation like that ? So if I don't have the right temp on display which I really wouldn't care that much of , it can mess up my ac in the car?

I’ve been driving without this for about 2 months. We just had our first week of heat waves in NYC now my ac compressor engages and disengages by itself. I wonder if this could be the issue

[@frankmontez6853]

Does it have a fuse and where’s it located? 15 Ford Fusion. I put in new sensor and still not working . I checked pigtail with test light connecting clamp end to frame of car the sharp end to inside of the pigtail. It didn’t light up

I have a 2011 grand marquis. I did the EATC test on it and it's giving me a dtc code 42. All data on a UA-cam video says outdoor ambient temperature sensor. Im trying to locate it now. Do u suggest to replace or look for frail or pinched wires first?

[@robdittes5228]

I just bought a 2015 Chevy silverado 2500hd and it is displaying a constant -40 no matter what the temp is outside. The air temp has been in the mid 70s to mid 80s since I purchased the truck 2 weeks ago. I am not sure if it is a sensor issue or something in the main computer hmi since the display is on the touchscreen radio

My mom's old 2006 Dodge Caravan A/C will work only when the temp gauge rises past mid point. As soon as it goes below midpoint it'll stop blowing cool air. Can this be a faulty ambient sensor?

[@solb8978]

Does this problem also affects the battery life?

[@jrockaz548]

Could this be why my compressor in 2011 Highlander shuts off at idle but works fine when at 1500 rpm or above? It is charged to the correct pressure and does not have a leak

[@haroldgray457]

Where is it on a 2019 mercedes sprinter looked behind tag plate and bumper ???

[@cademmo]

Help if you can
14 Silverado AC has a mind of its own. Compressor is working no blow fuses,no leaks and pressure high and low side are within range according to the chart for outside temp and humidity. I replaced ac relay because I thought it was going bad.
Could this possibly be the prime suspect before I take it to a shop.
Thanks for any advice

Forgot to mention no codes

[@jasonjerusalem8644]

can i ask if where is the ambient temp location sensor in ford focus 2008 petrol?

[@pilotboy2612]

Should be in driver's side door mirror.

[@bluestthinking1454]

Would be useful to show where precisely the ambient temperature sensor is located and what needs to be done to access it.

[@jasondibley3301]

He said it's behind the front bumper behind the grill
