HVAC Interior sensors
#21
According to my owners manual for a 2003 3.0 S type sport, there is a temperature sensor behind the plastic grill just above the ignition key, and there is a solar sensor in the middle of the dash at the base of the windshield. This plastic grill pots out easily. I have read to there is also a sensor just above the accelerator pedal that is attached to a HVAC control box but have not been able to find this sensor, although I have not taken apart the dash. I cleaned both sensors with mass air flow sensor cleaner which is suppose to not attack plastics. I was having a problem of inconsistent heating and cooling, and this cleaning seems to have fixed the problem. I also pulled the fuses for the HVAC system and disconnected the battery for a bit, and this may have served as a "reset" of the HVAC.

Yea it's all fixed under the shops warranty. It was really cold here so I had the idea of unplugging the dccv which according to the forum should give me full heat and I got zilch. So I took it back to the shop. Had them order a new one after raising a little hell. And it was replaced. Could it be possible he took a cheap way out and got a rebuilt one?
