View Full Version : The Little Grill In the Dash Jeff 02-26-1999, 12:15 AM This is driving me nuts. On my 97 there is a small grill just to the right of the radio. It is about 1" wide and 1 1/4" long and is angled towards the passenger. What it's for? Some sort of automatic temperature control sensor? Paul Gagnon 02-26-1999, 02:22 PM I think it has something to do with the passengers side EXPLODING BODY MANGLER! (sorry I had a bad experiance with air bags) ok89 07-03-2001, 01:45 PM Ive wondered the same thing what is that thing for? jimbo74 07-03-2001, 01:48 PM yeah, my moms X has that too aldive 07-03-2001, 02:20 PM Someone told me it had to do with the fancu high end climate control systems. It is simply there in other models/ Robert 07-03-2001, 02:37 PM That's right. If you have the electronic climate control, then it will have a thermistor behind the grill to sense the internal temperature. It is cheaper for Ford to make one dash rather than two. fixer 07-12-2001, 08:03 PM that's the microphone, so "they" can listen!
