Nissan Repair: Temperature Display in the rear view mirror OC, nissan altima 2002, nissan altima


Question
Hi my temp display in the auto dimming mirror shows OC always.I came to know from your previous answers that there might be some loosening of wires coming from the sensor. So can you please let me know how to locate the sensor under the hood in my Nissan Altima 2002 2.5 S

Answer
Djack,

The sensor is in front of the radiator, just behind the bumper.  If is pretty easy to find.  If you just unplug it and reconnect it that usually solves the problem.  I have even found plastic bags covering the sensor, that have been sucked up from the road, that cause a bad reading.
