Removing outside temperature sensor -617-
Instructions. The value measured by the outside temperature sensor -G17- is processed by the onboard electrical system -J519- and transmitted via the data bus system to the climate control and display unit, Climatronic control unit -J255- (and control unit in instrument cluster -J285-). This illustration shows the location of the outside temperature sensor -G17- -A- on an Audi A4 or Audi Q5. The location may differ from this. On vehicles in which -G17-A- with bracket -B- is installed on the decorative grille above the amplifier, as a result of this position of -G17- under certain conditions it may occur that an increased temperature value is generated (due to heat radiation from the cooling system radiator and condenser, for example, on a vehicle model year 2008). Therefore in mod. In the year 2009, the location of -G17-A- gradually changes, -G17- is installed with a modified bracket -C- slightly forward (closer to the radiator grille) and below the amplifier -D-. On vehicles in which -G17- -A- with bracket -B- is installed on the decorative grille above the amplifier, there may be complaints about an increased measured temperature value. Install -G17-A- with modified bracket -C- slightly forward (closer to the radiator grille of the cooling system) and below the amplifier -D-. Depending on the type of wire connection, you may have to extend it further. Bracket -C- is attached to amplifier -D- (In order to do this, if it is missing, you need to drill a hole with a diameter of 7 mm under the amplifier -D-).
Turn off the ignition. Removing the top panel cover. Disconnect connector -E-temperature sensor -A- and release sensor from bracket (-B- or -D-).
Depending on the set The vehicle may need to remove the bumper to remove -G17-A- from the bracket -O- installed under the amplifier -D- (if, for example, on vehicles with additional radiators -G17- is not accessible from above). After installation, interrogate the fault memory of the control and display unit, Climatronic control unit -J255- (and control unit in instrument cluster -J285-) and remove possible displayed faults.
