Location of External Temp. Sensor??

Jan 01, 2006 1 Replies
1997 Mercury Mountaineer aka Explorer. The overhead display that gives the external temperature varies from 108-104 degrees F. I'm guessing the sensor is bad? Where is the sensor located or possible wire colors? Does this sound like a problem from just a bad sensor or maybe the sensor got loose and is resting up next to the engine?

Thanks WT


iirc, next to left headlight ,behind grill, under "flap"

Looks like a big "bolt" on a bracket with a connector on 1 side and pointy thingy other side :-)
