jari Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Okay. Why is my temp sensor giving me a reading of -50C? Anybody seen this one before? It started counting down all the way down to -50 in random steps. After about 10 minutes it went in reverse all the way up to the normal outside temp. I thought for a second I was reenacting a scene out of The Day After Tomorrow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbucket Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 my girlfriends corsa always displays an outside temp of a least 60 degrees so was it both the dash and climatronic giving the wrong reading? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jari Posted February 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 yeah, they were both giving wrong readings. Seems to be okay again now. weird.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac3 Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Read on a recent post that someone had had their sidelight replaced by the dealer and they forgot to reconnect the temp sensor, the dealers take the bumper off for the job. Same symptoms so sounds like a disconnect somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy32 Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 It sounds like the temp sensor has disconnected or is faulty. You will find it at behind the bottom right hand grill below the head light, I know this because when replacing a faulty headlamp my dealer had forgotten to reconnect it resulting in the exact symptoms you have. Hope that is of some help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
