Välistemperatuuri andur peaks olema vahetatav osa. Displeil näeb keskmist temperatuuri. Alguses süüte sisselülitamisel minuti jooksul eelmisel väljalülitamisel olnut ja siis kuni 5 minuti jooksul peaks jõudma jooksva temperatuurini. Kuna temperatuuri andur asub mootoriruumis iluvõre taga, siis õiget temperatuuri näitab ainult liikumise ajal, kui välisõhk käib läbi.
Tsiteeri:
The temperature displays the outside ambient temperature in whole degrees. The temperature display can be toggled from Fahrenheit to Celsius by selecting the desired U.S./Metric option from the customer programmable features as described in ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFORMATION CENTER PROGRAMMING in the Service Procedures section of this group. The displayed temperature is not an instant reading of conditions, but an average temperature. It may take the thermometer display several minutes to respond to a major temperature change, such as driving out of a heated garage into winter temperatures. When the ignition switch is turned to the Off position, the last displayed temperature reading stays in the Body Control Module (BCM) unit memory. When the ignition switch is turned to the On position again, the EVIC will display the memory temperature for one minute; then update the display to the current average temperature reading within five minutes. The temperature function is supported by an ambient temperature sensor. The sensor is mounted outside the passenger compartment near the front and center of the vehicle, and is hard wired to the Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM sends temperature status messages to the EVIC module over the PCI data bus network. The ambient temperature sensor is available as a separate service item.
