Default Outside temp not working.
I just washed my car and for the second time after washing it, the outside temp senser is -32 degress and the next morning, it goes back to normal. I think my outside temp sensor is out. Any body know where that sensor is located? Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks for feedback.

It can be found in the lower center grille.

Probably just a short in the wire, bad readings when wet.
