'03 clk 500
not sure where it is but maybe it got converted to F? my clk generally runs at around 90C which isn't all too far from 185F (85C)

Passenger side, behind the fog light mesh or the extreme left side of the lower rad grill. My car is torn apart right now and I noticed it hanging there, it's black, cone shaped that tapers to a tip, IIRC about an inch and a half long.

I have one pic of the location (the front end of my car is pulled off for mods) but the internet here is way to slow to upload pictures, sorry.

The wiring for the ATS it is loomed with the wires for the passenger side fog light, I don't see any wiring there at all...?

Are you the one who removed your lower grill and fogs? If so, you should have seen it. What Kev describes on his '05 is the same as my '08, but I suppose your '03 could be different. It is a black plastic cone a little smaller than the plastic cap on a pen. It clips on the passenger end of the large lower grill usually. It would show in your first picture, but you have nothing there at all. I assume it's hanging down or maybe tucked in by your radiator, which may explain why it reads high.

As soon as you find the wiring for the passenger side fog light you're there, the ATS is bundled with it. Good luck.
