External Temperature Sensor

[chromedome]

My aux heater is intermittent and I think it may be the External Temperature Sensor.

 

I've done a search but I can't work out where it is. Could someone please tell me where it is and what I have to do to get to it. A picture would also help because I haven't got a clue what the sensor looks like.

 

Thanks in advance.

The temperature sensor for the booster heater is near the wiper motor.

Thanks for the info, can you tell me how to gain access to the wiper motor. Do I have to remove both wiper arms and remove all the plastic trim?

Its dangles in a clip in front of the pollen filter

Even with my glasses on :rolleyes: I can't even see the pollen filter. Which side of the engine bay is it and what do I need to remove to see it? Thanks again.

Thanks seatkid, I now know where to look. I'll report back with the results.

I've got to wait another day, the dealership parts department ordered the wrong part even though I took the old one with me for comparison. :rolleyes:

Part eventually arrived and is now fitted, 10 minutes. Aux heater fires up fine and temperature now stays steady. :lol:

 

Thanks for the help given.

However for info this was my symptons.

 

Firstly no jet engine.

 

Secondly the temperature guage would suddenly drop.

 

This could last anything from minutes to days.
