The ambient air temperature sensor is located on the lower RH side of the radiator support. It is held in place with a plastic push-in retainer. While the sensor may be bad, there's a connector there, so maybe it's disconnected or the contacts are dirty. You'll need to raise the front end to access it.

I hope this is helpful to you!
