Outside Temperature

In the instrument cluster of a 2005 TSX, there is a display of outside temperature.
This used to display a temperature which appeared to be correct when compared to known temperature for the day.
Some time ago, it started to give readings, which in hot weather, were clearly about 6 degrees (F) above actual temperature, so it can no longer be relied on as an accurate indication of temperature. Although it took a while realise it was inaccurate, there is a possibility that the changed happened after the car had been in the garage.
Is there something that could have become disconnected or is there a simple method to calibrate the gauge so we once more have an accurate reading.

Regards, Paul Dixon

You might want to try the TSX forum for better results. I know there is a way to calibrate your temperature readings.

Thanks Nicks2001tl
With trying to remember my password etc, I guess I missed finding the forums and only found this one. I have now reposted to the TSX forum.
