Missing sensor

Hi there,

The sensor I think you're speaking of is the Exterior Temperature Sensor.
Costs about $50 or $60 CAN, Hopefully you didn't rip the connector off of the wires, although it isn't too hard to re-wire.

Hope this helps,
Tiger

Hi there,

I just thought of something else... it might also be a heated washer fluid sensor...or something like that...
On some models there is one sensor on each side. One for Ext. Temp. and the other for (I think) headlamp washer heated nozzle. The temp sensor is pointy, and the other one is round.
You'll prolly also need to replace the splash shield too.

Anyway... just some additional thoughts
