A friend's 2000 Ford Expedition , Eddie Bauer. External Temp was reading 137 degrees- no kidding. Heat is lukewarm (after a complete coolant flush; heater cores included) and ACs not so cool. All the other stuff ruled out or repaired. Just replace that 23 year old ambient temp sensor, right? Good luck finding the DY-718 anywhere in stock (no aftermarkets; bad experiences). Amazon; even the Ford parts sites. The big box auto stores- nope. And then I run across Pillar Surplus. Surprise! They have one! Ordered.
With the sensor, made the repair. It was 60 degrees outside; External Temp now read 60 degrees. My friend told me max heat will now run you out of the truck. Expedition's are large SUVs. Now it heats, and well.
With fast shipping and, as luck would have it, having this specific sensor in stock, Pillar Surplus should be a first stop for those elusive parts that are hard to get. Many thanks for helping me out!
