Look below your Zoodad. It should be in that area.

I think so, I stop stocking it cause it was a slow mover so I can't go look at one. but it looks right. See if there is any ID numbers on the part.

Since it's got to see outside air temps, try looking through the grill from the front side of the truck Jorge.

Editang I'm slow tonight. Posted this before you put up the pictures of the front.

Double edit: Can I redeem my slow typing abilities with some pictures? Robin is correct about looking under your zoodad. You'll have to look behind that grill of yours. No idea what the wires you showed go to.

Hey, Chris, I tried and I dont see anything...that jumps out at me anyway. I'm pretty sure the thing is gone so its hard to "see" what I am missing (if that makes sense). I finally fixed my overhead display since I bought over 2yrs ago and now no temps.

EDIT: I'm off to take my son to practice so I will check back with ideas you guys have in about 1hr....thanks!

I posted pictures of the one from my wife's truck. Scroll back up to see them. My post had been the last post for a little bit, so I thought I could just add the pictures before the thread moved on. I guess I should have known better.

Thanks Chris, Looks like the pics in post #6 are what I need. By the looks of yours my wires have been cut and those spade ends were put on. I will have to see what the probe looks like when I get it to mod up a connection. I am on rep lock down so I will get you when I can.
