• Long-life construction for durability in daily driving conditions
• Made by the OE manufacturer
• Rein ELT0057 temperature sensor for select Volkswagen and Audi models

Detailed Description

The Rein ELT0057 ambient air temperature sensor is an OE-quality electrical component intended to restore accurate outside temperature reporting. Because ambient temperature data can affect HVAC behavior and driver information displays, a worn or inaccurate sensor can create noticeable system errors. This Rein temperature sensor is engineered to match the original part’s design and operating characteristics for the listed Volkswagen and Audi applications.

Compatible With: 1998-2011 Volkswagen Beetle, 2011 Volkswagen Beetle Cabrio, 2004-2010 Volkswagen Touareg, 2004-2006 Volkswagen Phaeton, 2000-2005 Audi A3, 2004-2005 Audi A3 Quattro, 1999-2005 Volkswagen Golf, 2000-2005 Volkswagen Jetta, 2000-2004 Audi S3, 2004 Volkswagen R32, and 1999 Volkswagen Jetta from VIN 9MX109292. This part cross-references 1J0919379A for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

• Incorrect outside temperature readings on the dash or climate display
• HVAC control issues caused by faulty ambient temperature input
• Intermittent temperature sensor faults or erratic readings
• Replacement needs for aging OE-style temperature sensors
• Restoration of proper sensor feedback on Volkswagen and Audi HVAC systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s year, model, and VIN before ordering, especially for the 1999 Volkswagen Jetta application with VIN 9MX109292. Compare the original connector, mounting style, and sensor location to the removed part before installation. After replacement, confirm that the outside temperature display and HVAC operation respond normally.
