Had the grill off to clean out debris in front of condenser( 1" high or so) to get better cooling performance and came across the following sensors:

Looks like this is for the HVAC system and is the ambient air temp sensor according to the part # on it.

But, What is this sensor? No part # on it.

And where is it suppose to attach to? It was just hanging loose behind the hood latch support.



ETA: what's the s shaped line? PS cooling?

The sensor on the passenger side is in fact the ambient sensor for Automatic Climate Control. The sensor in the middle is for the thermometer in the overhead console. It clips into the hole at the bottom of the hood latch support. The "S" shaped line is the power steering cooler.
