G6 automatic temperature control issue

Hey, I'm having an issue with my 2011 Ford G6 (gasoline engine). The automatic temperature control has stopped working! The air conditioning won't even switch on, and I've got an error stored. I suspect it's a faulty interior temperature sensor, but I'm really not sure where to start. Anyone else had a similar problem? It's driving me nuts!

I had a similar problem with my G6. Check the cable and plug connection of the component. Is the temperature reading displayed on the dashboard also incorrect?

Thanks for the tip! Where exactly is that cable/plug located? And yes, you're right, the temperature reading on the dashboard is totally off, which is another reason I suspect the sensor. Any more details would be a huge help!

Given the inaccurate temperature reading and the non-functional climate control, and the fact that I had similar symptoms, I'd advise taking it to a workshop for a proper diagnosis. It sounds like the sensor issue is very likely, and they'll be able to pinpoint the exact problem and confirm whether the cable or plug is indeed defective.

Okay, thanks a bunch for confirming my suspicions and for the advice! I'll book it in with a workshop to get it sorted. They've quoted me around 95€ for the repair, which doesn't sound too bad all things considered. Hopefully, that'll fix it!
