Ambient Air Temperature Sensor
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Mercury Mountaineer and 2004 Ford Explorer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The ambient air temperature sensor and bracket:
- is located in front of the condenser core.
- contains a thermistor which measures the temperature of outside air as a resistance and sends that reading to the DATC module.
