Hello ! 

 

I drive a Ford Galaxy 2016 there i have a issue with the ambient sensor. It shows 10°C. 

That i have done is to change the sensor without to solve the problem, what else can it be ? 

Fuse ?

    100% not a fuse, if a fuse is blown, the item doesn't work, not become inaccurate...

    When it shows 10c, what temperature do you believe it to be?

    As said, what are the ambient temperatures in Sligo (predicted 25 on Friday!)?
    If you have changed the sensor, you know where it is (Is it at front drivers side near bottom of radiator please - photo possible?).
    If it's a thermistor (?), measure the resistance and see what happens when put into warm water (up to 40 deg C), resistance usually drops.
    Then measure voltage at the connector, if nothing then you have a wring fault.
    If there's a voltage, try different values of resistor (or variable resistor or decade box in place of sensor to see if there's a change.
    Or...?

    If the sensor range is between 0oC and 100oC perhaps the fuse is only 90% blown 🤣
