Wrenches, Jay,
Transformer temp sensors in the FX Fails, fans fail causing fet boards to
overheat, dirty filters cause high temps on all the intervals. When outback
was still running the parts department you always got temp senders with
fans, boards and a relocation procedure, yes you must put the sensor in a
new location.
