I have just received a call from my dad who is currently using my S-Type R (2003) to say that the airconditioning is playing up. He mentioned that the 'digital outside temperature gauge' on the dashboard is displaying a temperature of 53F and will not move from this temperature?!
I imagine that the outside temperature sensor is probably broken, affecting the cars aircon system. I searched on the forum and google for similar problems but could not find related stories on the S-type. I did however find ones related to X types and the newer XF.
Could you guys please advise if my analysis is correct and a common problem on the Stype, and if so, do you perhaps know the part number for this sensor and the best place to purchase. Additionally, where is this sensor located on the car? (I'm guessing under the bumper)
...another task on the infinite to-do-list when back from holiday...
Thanks
Menno
