GM Genuine Parts 15-50353 (09152245) Engine Compartment Ambient Air Temperature Sensor

OEM part that made the air conditioner in my truck function properly again.

Same part as original Saab part--one of the few advantages to GM's takeover and eventual killing of the brand. Bought to fix an issue where the outside temp was reading as either 125F or ---. In most cases I wouldn't have worried about this in the winter because who wants to lay under a car in the middle of winter? But in this case, this drives more than just the display--it also is used as an input to the automatic climate control to help it decide whether it should apply heat or A/C. When it's really 15F but the controller thinks it's 125F the inside of the car gets cold! Fix was necessary.

This part fixed my problem with the ambient air temp reading. I thought it was bad to start with as it still read -40°, however after driving the vehicle for a while, the temp slowly returned to a normal reading and is now accurate. Good quality OE part, definitely recommend.

I won't buy knock off electrical parts for my car. The real deal here.

Failed the first couple of days after install. Junk!

The air-conditioner in my 2000 GMC Yukon was working intermittently. Apparently, there are two (2) sensors that could cause this problem, one inside the and behind the dash (very hard to get to) and the other is under the hood below the passenger-side headlight (easy to get to). Hoping for the best, I replace the easy to get to sensor with this replacement, and my air-conditioner is working full-time again. This sensor is well-made and is selling at a very reasonable price.

Not for 2018 Chevy Malibu. Over trusted Amazon compatibility check

Used this to replace the existing climate control sensor on my 2004 Silverado extended cab. This sensor is located behind and below the passenger side headlight assembly(its snapped into a radiator shroud deflector). This isn’t the sensor that reads ambient temperature on the rear view mirror. That one is on the radiator support under the transmission cooler if so equipped and it’s typically grey if OEM. This one feeds ambient temp data to the HVAC unit in the dash.

Amazon you have great pricing on OEM GM parts vs the dealship .Great job

Fits perfectly in my 2012 Cruze and works exactly like the original one did.

I was actually very upset even though it's not an expensive part the section of Amazon that their car section tells you whether it will fit your vehicle or not and it's still saying it'll fit my vehicle it most definitely does not
