Work instruction Display OK If not OK
1 Visual inspection
  • Check outside temperature sensor for external damage
  • Check plug connection for contact and corrosion
Step 2 Replace outside temperature sensor in the case of damage or repair plug connection
->End
2 Check output voltage of the instrument cluster
  • Switch off ignition
  • Unplug connector from the outside temperature sensor
  • Switch on ignition
  • Measure voltage between pin 1 and pin 2 of the plug of the outside temperature sensor
approx. 3.4 V
