2002 Sable Temperature Readout Problem

Asked by Gersen7777 Oct 13, 2024 at 05:24 PM about the 2002 Mercury Sable LS Premium Sedan FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My 2002 Mercury Sable's temp display suddenly reads a steady 80 degrees on
a 92 degree day. As far as I know this has just happened today; it was OK the
last time I looked at it. Is it most likely the temp sensor or what?

I'm assuming this is the outside temperature display. There's a sensor located in front of the radiator, just behind the grille. Most likely it needs to be replaced. Jim
