Just found out that its called a "Digital clock/outdoor temperature" that i have if that helps?

Cheer sdobie fingers crossed as next week my mum's not at home so i can pick the cab up from storage and fit the OBC at long last yay

The 'Cliff' is asking if the temperature sensor for a 7-button OBC will work with a 13-button OBC. The meaning is clear once you add in a few necessary verbs, nouns etc. We are used to his ways, and add in the required words without thinking

Very true! I didnt even realise there were words missing until I went back to re-read!

Which air duct is the temp sensor in? I will stick my fingers in for a rummage after work if someone can post up a picture

When we can compare part numbers with someone who has a 13 button OBC temp sensor and get the answer that way

nice one curry! i was struggling with that too!!

illiterate mother-bitch that he is!!!

the air temp sensor lives in the nearside air duct

and my temp sensor has 1383 204 as the part number, i have a proper 13 button obc

Don't take this as being definitely correct, but from somewhere in the deep recesses of what used to be my brain, I seem to recall they are not interchangeable. IIRC, they have different temp/resistance characteristics, so will give completely wrong readings.

I up graded from 6 button computer to a 13 button computer and left the orginal temp sensor from the 6 button in and it doesn't work. Gives a constant read out of 169F all the time!

Bloody good point mr curry

are there not 2 types of temp sender my 13 button obc has the same sender as the 9 button one in dobbies diagram above when i went to replace a knackered one i was automatically given the yellow one without the piece of wire which dont fit
