THE TEMPERATURE SENSOR SHOULD BE ON THE TOP OF THE ENGINE NEAR THE TERMASTAT. IT STICKS OUT OF THE ENGINE SO YOU SHOULD SEE IT

SOURCE: where is the outside temp sensor located

You will find the ambient temperature sensor behind the grille and in front of the condensor. The grille will have to be removed to replace the sensor.

SOURCE: air conditioner clutch will not engage. also my

That is why the A/C clutch is not coming on.If the temp is below 50 degrees the auto control will not allow the compressor to kick in to protect the compressor.You have to check the codes for the body control module.It should show a code for the outside temp sensor.You could have a bad sensor or wiring.If you disconnect it it should show -40 degrees.check wiring and connections.Hope this helps.Good luck.

On the 05 Mustang instrument clusters this is a common problem, it's caused by failing stepper motors on the cluster's circuit board. It can be fixed though, check out this page for more on how to get it repaired - 05 mustang instrument cluster repair

may be faulty temp sensor ,,,,, or dust gathering on it giving false reading ,,,, you need to get a diagnostic reading to check internal temp readings and see if they are too low for the real temp of your area

Gage reads 10-50 degrees below actual tempiture

The needle on the dash gage can be pulled off and slipped back onto the stem of the gage. First get an accurate temp gage to be sure what the engine temp is operating at. Then remove the face of the dash gages and remove the needle and place it back onto the stem to reflect the current correct engine temp and you should be good.

Onboard Temp gauge

This probably occurs when you start up after the engine has been off for a few hours. What is happening is that the module is taking a new temp reading however heat from the radiator is causing the sensor to read a warmer value than it really is. I suggest that you relocate the temp sensor further away from the radiator and closer to the grill opening in order to read actual ambient temp (approx 6" should work).
