[QUOTE="nismo_400r, post: 793155, member: 34114"] Hi Bundy, I had a similar issue except it was reading low (-3 to 3 degrees in the summer), from my experience it does affect the climate control as it compares outside temperature to inside temperature to operate more efficiently. As far as I'm aware it has no impact on the engine running as there are other temperature sensors (coolant, intake air temp, etc.) With what the problem could be, mine was a ruined battery (original Nissan battery still in the car 9 years after it was sold!) however I don't think that would cause over-reading, and I had other niggles at the same time (parking sensor issues etc.) Getting to the sensor is a pain as it is between the front bumper and the radiator, mounted to the crash bar, so it is a front bumper off job. I do have a spare sensor if you would be looking to buy a used one, it worked when I tested it, the only problem is getting to it. Hope this helps :) [/QUOTE]
