w124 ambient temp sensor question
 
Quick question guys, anyone know how much current the ambient temp sensor pulls on a w124..

The sensor is a resister, the resistance varies with temperature. Measure the resistance of the sensor and use it to divide 12v and that will give you the current. Very little.
