If you have a 1989-1995 model 325i, the ambient temperature sensor should be part # 65818350779. Best way to see a picture is do a Google image search on the part number. It will look like a plastic piece, black on the probe portion, yellow on the plug-in portion, with 2 round electrical connector pins.
think you will find it under the drivers side bumper, it looks like a round disk.
The outside air temperature sensor is on the front of the car, near the nearside foglight on the plastic grill. It looks like the end of a Hilti nail.
The outside temperature sensor is on the driver's side next to the fog light (or where the foglight would be). It looks like a black pencil tip sticking out of a little hole in the black plastic.

The outside temperature sensor on the 2005 Chevrolet Silverado pickup is located in the top of the dash next to the windshield. Look for an area that looks like a speaker but is shaped like a triangle.
On a 2004 Nissan Pathfinder, the outside air temperature sensor is typically located near the front grille, often mounted on or near the bumper. It usually appears as a small, cylindrical or rectangular component, often with a connector plug attached to it. The sensor may be exposed to the elements, allowing it to accurately gauge the ambient air temperature.
It is on the dash in front of the steering wheel,it looks like a small black bump.
I am assuming you are referring to the outside temperature sensor. This sensor IS affected by wind, but not in the way you think. You may be able to answer your own question by understanding what "windchill" actually is. When it is cold outside and there is wind, the air moving by your skin actually makes it approach the actual outside temperature faster. The air is not colder, but it feels colder since the wind is cooling you down faster just as a lower temperature would cool your skin faster. So in the same manner, wind does affect a temperature sensor, but only if it is a temperature different than the outside air, like right after you pull out of a garage. Once the sensor reaches the actual outside temperature, no amount of wind blowing on it will make it read any colder. And temperature sensors are usually placed in the wind. I sure hope there is wind that reaches underneath your bumper since your radiator is depending on it. most temperature sensors on vehicles are located underneath near the front bumber bar they are not in the wind in that position engine temp sensor or outside temp sender? engine temp sender is in engine. outside temp is measured behind the bumper bar and not affected by wind answer ENGINE temperature sensor doesn't care about anything but actual temp of engine [in order to send message to computer so computer can then adjust fuel and air mixture for effecient operating of engine]. OUTSIDE temperature sensor doesn't care about anything but actual temperature outside of vehicle, [not effected by heat generated by vehicle] and doesn't measure windchill factor. However, I think you just came up with a great idea for manufacturers selling to us Canadians. We'd probably pay for sensor in open wind so could tell how cold or hot windchill factor is while driving [or stopped, for that matter]. edutainer
Hi wich sensor do u mean, outside sensor? in this case is in the right mirror under is like a button. my recomendation u should chek with a friend with Vagcom ob zour problem is about wiring or the sensir itself. (I have the same problem).
under the front bumper on the passenger side very easy to get at. looks like a cone that the dr looks in your ear with
The outside temperature feels like the combination of the actual temperature and other factors like wind, humidity, and sunlight. These factors can make it feel warmer or cooler than the actual temperature.
Where is the engin temperature gauge sensor located on the 1999 cadillac catera?
