Same thing happened to my 97 Buick Lesabre, I had to have mine replaced. Senor was was higher than outside temp so the a/c was not coooling the car. Sorry i can't tell you how to replace but it was not very expensive.

No. Try tapping on the fan relay in the fuse & relay panel under the hood. If the sensor is only reading 35 degrees however, despite the actual outside temp, that will prevent the A/C from coming on.


My 1999 Olds Intrigue AC wont work because outside air temp is reading incorrectly so how do I fix?

Replace the outside temp sensor. Problem could also be the climate control head. Read other posts about the notorious AC hot/cold problems affecting Intrigues, which has no certain solution. Before spending the money on a new outside temp sensor, if your temp is just reading low, try cleaning your battery terminals where they contact. Remember to remove the Negative first, and reattach it last. The sensor is really sensitive to voltage changes.

The outside temp has been fluctuating between -40 and regular temp. AC took while to come on today when temp said -6. What is wrong?

sounds like your outside temp sensor is internally open, you will have to replace the sensor, its location depends on the model and year of your car, also the ac works in with the outside temp, if your sensor is faulty then the ac will not function properly,
