Just recently bought a 2012 cruze lt 1.4 and i swore my radio showed the outside temp and stuff before but all it shows now is my bluetooth symbol time and the station im on. Im still learning everything in this car but im clueless on how to fix this lol help??
Look at the left (I think) side black lower cover (where a fog light is or would be) for a hole about maybe a half inch diameter.
The sensor is in that hole.
Generally, if you have NO readout, the wire got knocked off the back of the sensor.....you have to remove the plastic horizontal cover to see the backside, bottom of bumper cover......just remove enough fasteners so you can pull the panel down enough to see/reach in there.
The car may have had the front bumper cover removed for service or repair and the harness wasn't fully plugged in.
And once the wire is plugged back in, it may not re-appear right away. The car seems to have to think about it and then it will suddenly appear when you start the car.
Make sure the connector is seated properly. Many people have had issue while going into the car wash and all of a sudden the temp doesn’t show and the ac stop blowing cold. Good sign the ambient air temp sensor is bad or not connected.
