Outside temperature gauge

Otis · 05-27-2006, 11:02 AM

Mine has been stuck at 77 all day. It's over 90 here. Was out driving to lunch and noticed, ran a few errands, it didn't budge. How do I troubleshoot this? Is there a sensor that needs to be adjusted somewhere?

...should be under warranty still.

mine did that once. It was stuck at 67, and it was almost 90 out. After the AutoX I went home parked it and it worked the next day. So let it sit over night and see if that helps. Mine hasnt done it again. That was about 10 months ago.

My boost gage blocks mine...so I barely notice it.

It was fairly accurate this winter when I did look at it.

During the winter, mine was 3 degree higher. However, today, when i start up the car around 3pm, it read 110 degrees!

and i know it doesn't get that high in SNJ, however, after driving awhile, it dropped down to 94, which was about right..i think.
