2003 Ford F150, Lariat with 5.4 L Engine. Where in the world is the Ambient Temperature Sensor located ? I keep reading MAY be behind the grille ? I looked there, I don't see squat ! Any help appreciated. P.S. Someone at my favorite auto parts store said maybe near the Airbox ? Thanks all.
An '03 will have an AAT sensor ONLY if it is equipped with the EATC climate control system. If you have a manual climate control, that sensor is not going to be present. I would assume that a Lariat trim did come with the EATC.
BTW, do not confuse the AAT with the IAT (Intake Air Temp) sensor.
Here's where the EVTM says the AAT is located: You may have to remove the radiator sight shield to see it mounted up high just to the passenger side of the center of the radiator opening.
