Where is it located?

Can it be callibrated?

Mine seems to be about 4-5 degrees over all the time but it also gets some serious heatsoak from somewhere.

If the cars has been parked in the sun or even left in the garage after running then the outside temp reading can go into the 30's on a 10 degree day in Canberra! :flamed:

mine is actually on the front where the air con fan is. on the top side of that there is a black thing with wires coming to the middle under the latch that you can un plug. don't know if you can change it but you could move it from there.

So sorry to bring up an old thread but...

Ran an air conditioning diagnostic test and it comes up with a flashing 21. This means that the outside air temperature sensor is faulty or missing.

My ambient temperature is displayed as -30c.

I searched and searched on here but did not find a picture of said sensor. Many people have said it is located behind the front bar.

I found a plug with nothing connected to it, so one would assume this is the plug for this sensor. The sensor isn't there at all as far as I can see. It is a two pin plug, wire colours are light blue/white stripe and light green.

Does anyone know if this is the plug for the OAT sensor?

Thanks so much for your help. The plug that I found was in the location that the picture shows. The plug in the picture looks very similar to the one in my car also. The sensor is nowhere to be found, so I assume someone took it out in the past sometime.

I'll ring Nissan tomorrow to see if I can get a replacement sensor.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr 路 Posted

      @GTSBoy yeah i know it was not the "great" idea but it is and option...but i think i will stay on no BoV rather then trying to make it work with "half" this and that. But that GReddy FV2 is cool...i like that you can make it like stock if you want (and have/make the custom pipes) For other thanks! it was alot of information. But for the sound...a dont rly "like" both of them...specialy if they are loud...but if i "must" choose i would rather have little whooosh rather than sutututu with no BoV....BUT that is what is i gonna get. So for the all info i gather. In my case:  No BoV is not that bad cuz it is stock...and iam used to put N/clutch right after rpms are around 1000 so it should be ok...just need to avoid "big" drops. But i do not have the engine in the car so i do not really know how "bad" or good it is. But as i had that little test drive it looked ok. The atmo BoV should be worse car would dump to much fuel specialy between the shifts...so without proper tune/ECU i dont want that. BUT with that...car should drive ok with no problems right? (i do like there is less piping wih this solution) 馃檪

      Usually an RB20 won't stay in closed loop idle anyway. The O2 sensor gets too cold, stops swinging.

      They aren't, but it depends on what interests you about an R32-R34. If it's the front engine I6 turbo that tunes well with a manual transmission an E92 335i 6MT is so incredibly cheap. You can get a super clean one for 20-25k USD tops. Put an LSD in it, tune it, have fun with it. If it's the general idea of AWD + turbo and a manual transmission the 996 Turbo is absolutely much more expensive, it's less practical but it's also basically a complete track-ready car from the factory. At least the Mezger doesn't have heaps of oil control issues. And in the US the 996 Turbo and R33 GTR are roughly the same price these days. 996 maybe a bit more now that the hype has abated for old Skylines here.
