Afternoon all , just wondering if anybody knows where i can get a part for something.

During all the snow in november, december time i slid into the back of somebody at about 5mph, no damage was done but the engine management light came up on my dash.

Took the car to my mate so he could plug it into the computer and its because of the outside air temperature control switch or something. Basically all it is, i now cant see the outside temperature, all i get is -- C .

Wondering if anybody has had a similar fault and had it fixed... need to know where to get the part for it.

any help would be appreciated

have you tried www.fordpartsuk.co.uk?

yeah they don't have the part unfortunately.

Does anybody know exactly where the outside air temperature sensor is located so i can just check to see if its disconnected or broken. cheers

It's on the front bumper bar that sits behind the plastic bumper.
It's smack bang in the middle.
If you take the small upper grille off and look down at the bumper bar you will just see it.
The metal contact is probably shorting on it from the impact and requires re-bending. If you disengage the front bumper at the top you should be able to pull it forward enough to get your hand down there to do it.

Ah cheers, i forgot to mention i own a 2006 model Fiesta ST, or is it in the same place on every model of Fiesta

Its only on the new ones I believe?

It's only on facelifts yes and they're all in the same place.
