Cool Temperature sensor

Can anyone show me a picture of what the outside temperature sensor looks like. It’s for Banana.

Its pre-empting the new ice age caused by global warming.

Cool The sensor has landed.

Received a new sensor from Trikey this morning. Many thanks for his help.

That’s what the club is all about, helping one and other out. Makes me proud to be a member.

Just need Mr. Darke to fit it for me.

Cool Question

Does the outside temperature sensor have a fuse? If so where please.

If its still showing -30 Bob bear in mind it won't show the correct temperature immediately, needs a while to come to grips with reality after being connected.

No fuse, it's a thermistor, resistance changes with temperature. Make sure the contacts are clean, also the contacts in the loom connector when the bumper comes off. My diesel one was corroded in the arch loom where the bumper wiring connects.
Corrosion will alter the resistance to a much higher figure hence the - 30 reading.

Checked the live feed with a multi meter and no power showing. Was going to try a battery reset
