Where is the temperature sensor located

Post by jmmxc »

My dash digital temperature has been displaying the correct temperature ...until this afternoon. Driving home this evening I suddenly realized the temp was reading 60 degrees F. Outside temp was 32, all day. What could have gone wrong?
Thanks beforehand for your help .
