Hi Guys,

I was just wondering if anyone knew where the r32 outside air sensor is located? My A/C is busted and this is what came up in the fault code.

I did some searching and I cant find the sensor or any post's about it.

Any help appreciated.

Hi Guys,

I was just wondering if anyone knew where the r32 outside air sensor is located? My A/C is busted and this is what came up in the fault code.

I did some searching and I cant find the sensor or any post's about it.

Any help appreciated.

In front of the radiator and from memory it is supported off the bonnet latch support arm. It is a black rectangular unit.

Thanks for the help guys. I found where the sensor should be but it is absent. Where do you get replacment sensors from?

It appears I need the following:

21 - outside air sensor

24 - Intake temperature sensor

25 - Sunload sensor (small sensor on the left hand side of the dashboard near the windscreen)

  • 5 months later...

yea the manual has this to say about the sunload sensor:

"NOTE: If vehicle positioned in dark place or if sunlight is exceptionally strong, then sunload sensor error may be indicated"

so probably best to do the test outside, but not in direct sunlight

i went looking for my outside air temp sensor but i couldnt find it. what i could find was a random plug hanging around the area where everyone says the sensor should be. i took photos of this plug and i'm wondering if someone can tell me if this is the plug that connects to the air temp sensor. if so then i know mine is missing.

i would check nissan fast except my computer with that on it has broken beyond repair the other day.. FML

heres the pics, is this for the air temp sensor??

    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
