hipcity 10 Posted June 27, 2012 Corrado dash thermostat to measure external temperature is reading high 20’s when its only 10 outside? I should mention that the radiator motor fan and spoiler motor are both not working correctly Corrado 93 2L 16v Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boost monkey 0 Posted June 27, 2012 do you mean the outside air temperature as found in the MFA (trip computer on the end of the wiper stalk)? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hipcity 10 Posted June 27, 2012 Hi Yes, that's the one Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boost monkey 0 Posted June 27, 2012 i found mine usually slipped out of its mount under the bumper and was hanging loose as a lot of people pointed out when i parked up :/ perhaps yours is reading a bit of engine heat or something. does it still read high when the engine is cold?

boost monkey 0 Posted June 27, 2012 it might be faulty. Not sure where to get them from - if everything else on the MFA works right you could try and replace it. Ebay might have some. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
