mintalkin Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 sounds like it could be a problem with the outside air temp sender or it wiring, which is located behind the front bumper.also check the fuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter8 Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Hi, I can see that this is quite an old topic. Now I have exactly the same problem. Can you recall what caused the problem for your car? Thanks, Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unofix Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 The outside temperature sensor is broken or the wiring to it is open-circuit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isetta Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Do you have any other problems on the dash like the indicator tell tale lights not flashing even though indicator lamps outside work, and no indicator flash clicking sound? And handbrake light stays on when handbrake off? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonasjonas Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Hi isetta, sorry for reviving this topic, but I have this exact issue with my C max from 2011. Can you say something about what might cause it? Thank you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isetta Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Not sure if you are saying your only problem is the outside temp or the other stuff I described. On my brothers focus 2008 it had all of the problems I described. It was fixed by reseating the electrical plugs on the bcm under the glovebox. It has loads of plugs on it and hinges downwards to access. It is possible for passengers feet to kick it and affect it.

Vinster Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 I had the same issue, exactly the scenario that isetta explains. Their comment prompted me to look under the passenger footwell, lo and behold, a plug disconnected and hanging down! Switched engine off, reseated plug, and central locking made audible sound immediately! Now all is well. Thankyou Isetta! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
