Front Bumper Question

[lipper11]

Hi fellow Sonic owners.I would like to know from anyone who has removed their front bumper.Is there any way to reach the ambient air sensor other than removing the bumper.My plug fell out, and I have no reading on my dash.Thanks for any help.

remove the guard if applicable, Jack and support the front, and blindly reach until success?

Thanks Eric.Are you talking about the guard under the bumper?. if so, is it one piece?. Thanks again.

You should be able to get a hand in the passenger side wheel well by removing the torx screws. It will be tight but I just had to clip mine in earlier this week without taking the bumper all the way off. It's the two under the car and the 4 in front of the front tire. Hope that helps.

That's what I was wondering I Will give it a try. Thanks to everyone

 

[Eric Smit]

good luck. let us know how it goes.

Thanks again Eric. No Joy on the ambient air sensor.Reached all the way up to the sensor. I could feel the plug is in tight, but still no reading on mylink, guess it's a bad sensor.

sad day. at least they aren't too expensive.

I know, $5.00 part $100 to install it.

do it yourself. it's fun to learn what can cut your hands/arms the deepest.
