This part cross-references Standard Ignition AX377 for the same application.

What It Is Used For

• Incorrect outside temperature readings on the dash or climate display
• HVAC performance issues tied to ambient temperature input
• Broken, cracked, or corroded sensor housing
• Connector or terminal damage at the front-end sensor location
• Replacement after sensor failure on Audi and Volkswagen models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector shape, terminal count, and mounting style before installation. This sensor uses a push-in mount, a female connector, and a 2-wire layout, so the replacement should be matched to the original part location and harness configuration. Confirm vehicle fitment by year and model before ordering, especially on Audi A3 Quattro, A4, A5, Q5, Q7, and Volkswagen Jetta applications. Part number 1814347 should be compared against the removed sensor for final confirmation.
