[QUOTE="moots, post: 517875, member: 219"] ok i need to make myself clear.there are 2 issues here: 1. outside air temp is faulty 2. engine temp gauge is also faulty..............there...... ok no dice.i removed the outside air temp(oat) sensor and drove to and from work but the engine temp gauge is pointing at red at engine start up(engine cold) and goes down to blue scale at crz.me thinks engine/coolant temp sensor is faulty. but for the life of me i cannot figure out the location of the engine temp sensor.this inputs the engine temp gauge on the instrument cluster.it is not on the lower hose at the radiator(at least not on my car).can someone verify if it is located under the intake manifold and is it a dual temp sensor that feeds the ecu as well?
