Default External air temperature off.

On Sunday, my outside temp on my gauge cluster showed 53degrees F.
The outside temp was about 80-82degrees.
I shut the jeep off and restarted and it was still stuck at 53degrees.
* I have not installed / changed anything in regards to electronics*

Anyone experience this?

Thanks.

There is a thread here somewhere that discussed this. Mine has never been off that much but I think +\-10* isn't unusual.

There is another thread that gives specifics, but it will not update unless you are moving at so-and-so MPH for such-and-such a time. It is the dumbest setup ever....

It *will not* update if you are sitting still.

Dumbest setup ever?

It won't update unless moving because it will read radiator heat when standing still.
