Honda HR-V: Gauges Symptom Troubleshooting - Outside Air Temperature Indicator Does Not Change
Outside air temperature indicator does not change
NOTE: Outside air temperature is indicated based on the measurement value of the outside air temperature sensor located behind the center of the front bumper. Because of the location of the sensor, it may be affected by heat reflection from the road, engine and radiator heat, or hot exhaust from surrounding traffic. To display the outside air temperature, the gauge control module has an indication mode based on engine coolant temperature and vehicle speed. Some modes do not raise the temperature indication, so the outside air temperature indication may not change when the mode continues.
