paddynewman Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 What is actually behind the little "grill" just above the 12v cigarette thing? Stupidly I hadnt thought of asking before I disconnected whats behind it as it was fouling my on/off switch for my TV/PS2 http://www.secret-valley.ee/supra/garage/Supra922008/ac.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attero Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 IIRC, nothing. But you have to take the dash off to confirm that. Simple job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raven Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Cabin air temperature sensor for the air conditioning Is it? must be set back a far way? Ive never noticed it before and my dash has been off more times than the car has been driven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Blyth Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 It's almost directly behind the grill - see below the white connector in this pic: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paddynewman Posted October 6, 2010 Author Share Posted October 6, 2010 Ah, so doesn't really matter? It just looked like a little black blob with legs, much like a resistor. As long as my car isnt going to go all special on me, its all good then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 O yeah, well i learn something new every day. I think i always took it as a vent. I stand corrected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Blyth Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 It is a vent also! It gently sucks the cabin air over the sensor to get a more accurate temperature reading. The sensor is the little round black object in the middle of the vent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
