Although the 202 car has the easiest location for the evap temp sensor above the drivers foot into the side of the case, the answer to whether it is the problem is the simplest task know to auto technicians. No tools, no tests, no disassembly; just push and hold the "rest" button till actual values are displayed, bang on all the buttons till the value changes to #5 and see what the temp is. In the morning when the car is all the same temp, all the actual values for temp sensors should be the same temp.

A good running system will get to around 5 deg C on evap temp. Most defective sensors read 150 plus (an imposibility).
