'96 Ls400 Outside Temp Display Problem


Cygnus

Recommended Posts

The Outside Temp LED on my 96 LS400 randomly changes to wierd numbers like -21 F. Sometimes it's right on the money, then out of nowhere it will change to a much lower temperature. If the A/C is running in Auto mode it seems to stop blowing cold the moment the outside temp changes to an extreme low reading.

Is this a bad sensor? If so, is this an easy DIY fix?

The outside temp sensor seems to be broken on my 96 es. It just shows -22 degrees. Does anyone know where the sensor is located it and how much it runs for? I can probably pick it up from a junk yard or from the dealer if I have to.

Thanks

Generally it's mounted behind/on the front bumper in front of the A/C condensor.

-22F indicates a complete open which is more likely a broken connection or wiring.
