Honda Jade temperature sensor malfunction

I'm experiencing a perplexing issue with my 2020 Honda Jade hybrid. The outside temperature sensor seems to be malfunctioning. I'm getting an error, the AC refuses to engage, the spray nozzles think it's freezing, and the mirror heating isn't working. Could this be a defective sensor? I’ve read a likely cause is a faulty cable or plug connection. It's bothersome!

Summary of the thread

A 2020 Honda Jade hybrid is experiencing issues with the outside temperature sensor, leading to AC malfunction, incorrect spray nozzle operation, and non-functional mirror heating. The problem is suspected to be a defective sensor, possibly due to a faulty cable or plug connection. The solution involved inspecting and addressing corrosion on the plug connector, which was resolved by a workshop, restoring full functionality.

I had a similar problem with my 2017 BMW 3 Series. Same symptoms: AC not working, error codes related to the temperature sensor. Have you checked the wiring and connections to the sensor itself?

Yes, I gave the wiring a quick look, but not deeply. When you say 'wiring and connections,' are there specific points I should be focusing on? Any common failure points?

On my BMW, it turned out to be corrosion on the plug connector. Visually inspect the connector and wiring harness for any signs of damage or corrosion. If you're not comfortable, take it to a workshop. It shouldn't be too expensive to diagnose and repair.

Thank you! I took it to a trusted workshop, and it was a corroded connector, just as you suspected. A replacement and cleaning set me back 95€, but everything is working perfectly now. Much appreciated!
