Temp Sensor Fault Maybe??

Post by lordmpl »

Hi on my trip computer / used to be just a radio and temp readout, the temp is always in the twentys even today when the car is covered in snow.

Is it at fault, or is it inside the car for some unknown reason, where should it be situated as to check it??

Thanks, Mark.
