Ambient Temperature Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Eagle Vision, 1995 Dodge Intrepid, 1995 Chrysler New Yorker, 1995 Chrysler LHS, and 1995 Chrysler Concorde. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Ambient temperature sensor is located inside left front bumper beam. This thermistor monitors outside air temperature. BCM uses information provided by ambient sensor to regulate blower speed, temperature offsets, evaporator temperature, and mode control. If sensor fails, battery temperature input signal is used as back-up.
