Tourneo Heating Issue

I'm having a weird issue with my 2021 Ford Tourneo hybrid. I keep getting an error stored, and the heating output seems way too low, especially now that it's getting colder. The mileage is at 64601 km. I haven't touched anything myself, but I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar?

I had something similar with my Tourneo. Felt like the car was stubbornly refusing to heat up properly. Have you checked anything related to the solar sensor? I know it sounds random, but that was the culprit in my case. Is the error message related to that at all?

Solar sensor, huh? That's a new one on me! I'm not sure if the error message specifically mentions the solar sensor, I would need to check again. Where exactly is that thing located, and what does it even do?

Yep, solar sensor! It's like the car's personal weatherman, telling it how much sun is beating down. Honestly, I wouldn't even bother trying to fix it yourself unless you're really confident. In my case, the garage said it was likely a defective cable or plug connection, so I just took it to the workshop to get it sorted. Saved myself a headache!

Okay, thanks a lot for the insight! I'll definitely get the solar sensor checked out. Sounds like it's a trip to the workshop for me then. At least now I have a direction to point them in. Appreciate the help!
