The outside temperature guage in my S124 seems to have lost the plot.

It was always very accurate and yet a week ago it was reading 16 degrees when it must've been 6. Forgot all about it and then, on Friday, it was blank (but still lit up) before reading +58 point odd degrees.

What would likely be at fault here, the sensor or the display? And is it an easy fix?
 
It'll be the little sensor in the grille gone bad.

Mine was behind the number plate. Bought a new sensor that included all wiring right back to near the fuse box.

Linked it all up and normal service was resumed. Easy and not that costly.
