    Ambient temp sensor question

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    While working on my car today I broke the wire going to the ambient temp sensor, too close to the plug to try and fix it. Does anyone have a part # for the wired side? Or know what kind of plug it is so I can order one and wire it up?

    IIRC its the same as the brake pad wear sensor connector/brake fluid sensor connector, I always cut them off when I change pads and save them for situations like this.

    My bad brake pad wear sensor is the female connector, you need the male connector that plugs into the sensor, still the same connector as iat/brake fluid level sensor tho

    I was just agreeing with you on saving those connectors. My car has fouled a few and I've had to de pin and re pin a few times for better connectivity.
