Allbee1 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Hi, has anyone any ideas on why my internal thermometer is reading at 60 degrees. Any ideas on how to fix this ? not had any work done on the car, it was just showing this temp when turned car on today. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke4efc Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 I'm assuming you mean the ambient air temp? which is actually the outside temperature measured from a sensor located behind the front bumper. Is the reading high all the time? Even when the engine is cold? The sensor is positioned close to the radiator so will give a false reading if it starts touching it. Otherwise I'd guess at a bad sensor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unofix Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Is that 60C or 60F, your settings haven't somehow got changed to Fahrenheit ? just a thought as 60F is about 16C which in my part of the world is todays temp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unofix Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Hi Alison, does it constanly show 60C or does it change ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allbee1 Posted March 22, 2021 Author Share Posted March 22, 2021 Thanks everyone. Heres a pic of the temp in talking about. Engine is normal/cold and not noticed anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unofix Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 I would say looking at that, you have a faulty temprature sensor. An easy fix but a little difficult to reach as its mounted behind the front bumper, just uplugs and replacment plugs in without any drama 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
