Faulty temperature sensor in BMW E36
Hi Guys,
If your car is showing wrong outside temperature ( -37C or -35F ) like mine, this means that you have a faulty outside temperature sensor (temp sensor) which seems to be a very common problem in the BMW E36 by the way. At first, I thought it’s a hard problem to solve and decided to ignore it, but I found that replacing this sensor is straight forward if you know where it is located. I found some photos of it that you may find useful in locating and then replacing it.
I hope I will be able to fix this problem in my car this weekend. I think you too should do it if it’s broken.

This is where you can find the temp sensor, pretty clever, huh?
This is a photo of a brand new temp sensor
Wait for more from BMW E36 Blog.
Best regards,
Tony Sticks.
