My outside temperature sensor went tits up a few days ago in the very cold weather......was reading 55-67centigrade..........now that the weather has warmed up a little .........it is working perfectly again.

Perhaps the sensors do not like prolonged cold weather. :y :y :y

I think your right but to me it seems like water does the most damage. Vauxhall never seem to have mastered keeping sensors from getting wet!!  :'(

Apologies for hi-jacking this thread a bit. I have found a second plug from following the wiring back I am not sure if it is the connector box you were describing but I think this may be my problem, it had mould & scum all over it as if it had been wet before. I cleaned it up but I think one of the pins has coroded away and broke. See Pics





I assume there should be 4 pins in there????

Yep, thats exactly the one that was full of water on mine.  It was not corroded though so it was an easy fix.

UPDATE: Went to Markey marks yesterday for timing kit and waterpump fitting. All went well. We also fixed the outside temp fault. It was the plug that RichardH mentioned. Mark cut and soldered the wires together and now it works perfectly.

Thanks RichardH for pointing this out, and thanks again to Mark for sorting it out. Not even Vauxhall thought about checking that plug, but I suppose thats no suprise!

Cheers

Hope this helps others having issues with their temp sensors.  :y

Glad you got it sorted.  It can be really annoying having that problem, and always a relief to get it fixed.
