Has anyone noticed that the outside temperature gauge is slightly higher than the true reading? The temp seems to vary a few degrees above the outside temp listed on all my other devices. Is there a way to reset it?
A car thermometer usually reads higher than the air temperature because the roads, particularly asphalt, are hotter than the air. This is especially true in the summer when the sun is strongest.Has anyone noticed that the outside temperature gauge is slightly higher than the true reading? The temp seems to vary a few degrees above the outside temp listed on all my other devices. Is there a way to reset it?
No, they're going to be slightly (or drastically) different.Has anyone noticed that the outside temperature gauge is slightly higher than the true reading? The temp seems to vary a few degrees above the outside temp listed on all my other devices. Is there a way to reset it?
I'll give it that. Just got in one that was sitting outside, told the customer to wait a few minutes for things to cool down. Took it about 5 minutes, and it was fine. Oh, and the actual temp outside is 109 today, and the car said it was 117. Black Ascent sitting in the sun ...I'm seeing that too...my Ascent said 110 on my way home yesterday...oh, wait, that is what every other thermometer in Dallas said too! What do I love about my new Ascent? the A/C is not under powered!
If you have navigation, it will update to where you are automatically.Also - does anyone know if the weather reading on the smaller dashboard screen will update based on actual location or do you change it/update it manually?
