Default Outside Temputure Sensor Location?

Hello,

Can someone please tell me where I can locate the outside temputure sensor? My outside temputure reading is way off by +/- 10 degrees. Hoping I can just clean it.

2003 GX470.

Thank you!

Sam

It is located right in the middle postion of the radiator when you face it. Normally these dont get faulty, what you could do is remove the harness and wait for 8.5 mts. Then the stored valued gets erased. And then remove the Negative terminal and wait for 3 mts. And have them reconnected. Now drive the car, the ambient temp sensor would start getting its new values. And there you are. If the change still does not happen then you need ensure to see the complete harness which is routed via the A/c to the clock inside are checked thoroughly. Hope you dont reach to that stage. cheers
