question on outside temp sensor
« on: 15 February 2012, 19:25:27 »

This may sound like a dumb question but my outside temp sensor has gone a little mad.
Can this cause ignition problems in any way (just want to make sure)?

In my experience yes, it can. Last winter, -30 degrees and outside temp on dash showed +4, reason was broken wires, but it was very reluctant to start and can not find any other reason for that than the faulty wiring to outside temp sender.  :-\
