NO OUTside temp display!!!

Replaced my front bumper with an aspec front and now cannot get the outside temp to read! Does this make sense?? The dealership did the replacement a while ago, but I just noticed it. What should I do?

adding the aspec kit shouldnt do anything to your temp readings...

has it been really hot in your area? i have an 04 TL and when the temp outside is above 115, the car reads --- but once it cools down below 115 it will get a reading again.

It sounds like a wire worked loose from the temp sensor (located just behind the bumper), or the temp sensor went bad.

Get under the car, check for loose wires to see if that is the problem.

If it's a bad sensor, you'll have to have the dealer or an independent Acura mechanic diagnose and replace it.
