Livina Temperature Sensor Issues

Whoa, that's a cascade of problems from one little sensor! It's like a domino effect. Have you checked the wiring harness and connector for any obvious signs of damage, like corrosion or loose connections? A multimeter could help you check for continuity. Also, are you sure the sensor itself is faulty? Perhaps a diagnostic tool could provide a specific error code pointing to the sensor's functionality.

Regarding the wiring harness and connector, I have visually inspected them, but I haven't performed a continuity test with a multimeter. Could you elaborate on the specific steps involved in checking for continuity in this context? Also, the diagnostic tool simply indicates a general fault with the outside temperature sensor circuit. Could there be other components in the circuit that might cause this reading?

Okay, a general fault code makes it a bit trickier! Think of the sensor circuit as a water pipe. A blockage anywhere in the pipe will stop the flow. While the sensor might be the blockage, a break in the wire or a faulty connection anywhere in the circuit could also cause the 'blockage'. Unfortunately, without more advanced tools, it's hard to pinpoint. Given the complexity and the potential impact on your AC and safety systems, I strongly recommend taking your Livina to a trusted workshop for a professional diagnosis. It will likely save you time and potential further issues.

Based on your recommendation, I took the Nissan Livina to a local shop. The diagnosis confirmed a faulty connection, as initially suspected. The total repair cost, including parts and labor, came to 95€ Thank you again for your assistance.
