It is located next to the passenger side headlight, on the radiator support.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Locate the ambient temperature sensor, on the
right side of the radiator yoke behind the grille (Fig.
6).
(3) Disconnect the wire harness connector from the
ambient temperature sensor connector receptacle.
(4) Remove the one screw that secures the ambient
temperature sensor bracket to the radiator yoke.
(5) Remove the ambient temperature sensor from
the radiator yoke.
SENSOR TEST
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Disconnect the ambient temperature sensor wire harness
connector.
(2) Measure the resistance of the ambient temperature
sensor. At –40° C (–40° F), the sensor resistance
is 336 kilohms. At 55° C (131° F), the sensor
resistance is 2.488 kilohms. The sensor resistance
should read between these two values. If OK, refer to
Sensor Circuit Test in the Diagnosis and Testing
section of this group. If not OK, replace the faulty
ambient temperature sensor.
