Outside Temperature Sensor "B"

Hi,
Anyone know exactly where the temp sensor (the one that gives the outside temp on the multi - display) is located on a Frontera "B"?
Bu***red if I can find it!

what now mate

Fixed!...... now have temp display!
Funny how much you use this and not notice until it's not there anymore!
Got the new sensor from this guy on Ebay.
He has some good Fronty parts and the prices are really cheap.

Well done Paul.

Did you work out how to remove the B's grill ? (I'm only familiar with the A)

Hi,
Eventually! There are two spring clips in the engine bay.
Just tight enough to NOT be able to release with your fingers, and just so inaccessible that you can't get pliers on them!
They are square in section, fortunately I had some bits of square section brass tubing laying around in the shed.
One of them was just the right size to push over the clip and compress it enough.
There's probably a special Vauxhall tool to do the job at several billion pounds ......... :roll:

Stupid thing is, if you need to replace a front indicator bulb (reasonably common occurance I would think) ...... Yes....... you have to ........ Remove the Grille! :roll:

Thanks for posting back to let us know how you got on.
