Between the grille and the radiator, on the passenger's side, in line with the top engine mount(dog bone). Access is by removing the panel that surrounds the hood release latch...
I posted pictures on the location and replacement of an ambient temp. sensor for a 2001 S40. Google "ambient temperature sensor location/replacement" or go to Matthew's Volvo site and search there.
The ambient air temp sensor on a 2004 Dodge Neon is located at the front of the car, year the headlights. It receives fresh air rather than heated air from the engine for the most accurate readings.
It should be between #3 and #5 spark plugs.
Under intake plenum... has a dry coolant temp. Sensor in the head on the left bank... calculates ambient, exhaust and head temp in order to determine coolant temp
The airflow ambient temperature sensor is located on the air intake housing. The sensor should be labeled as the airflow ambient temperature sensor.
measures the ambient air temp (outside air temp) and sends that info to the computer to adjust air/fuel ratio for best burn.
If you are reading a code with the description "ambient temp. sensor open" that means that the sensor or the wiring to the sensor is open or broken. The sensor will have to be replaced or the wiring to the sensor repaired. Have it troubleshot prior to just throwing parts at it.
The ambient temp sensor on a 94 Labaron Landau is located under the hood, near the front of the compartment. It detects the outdoor temperature and allows the vehicle to make adjustments accordingly.
This is not a direct answer. The ambient temp sensor location is different from car to car based on Make Model year and engine. This sensor is located to measure the air temperature so the engine injection, anti-lock brakes, transmission shift and safety features all work. On most Pontiac Fieros this sensor is mounted on the air cleaner and is called the "intake air temp sensor" On many Dodge pick up trucks it is mounted in front of the radiator.
P0071=Ambient Air Temperature Sensor Range/Performance. There is a temp sensor in the fresh air intake that monitors the ambient air temp coming into the engine. Check to see if it is disconnected. On this van, the ambient temperature sensor is located in front of the bottom of the ac condenser.

No. Ambient measures the under hood, or outside temp not the intake itself.No. Ambient measures the under hood, or outside temp not the intake itself.
