where is temp sensor?

On the thermometer that is in the instrument panel. Mine never seems correct and is really pretty late changing. I thought maybe it was read from a radio signal and was weak in this area. I know that the display of the "now playing song" will stay on previous song if behind a building such as in a fast food drive-thru. I suspect that the temp reading is on a similar setup? Not real worried about it, just curious.

That was pretty interesting. It sounds to me like the temp will never be correct as it is for the most part an around time vehicle and has little chance of a 5 minute stretch above the listed speed. You gotta wonder why they would have designed it that way. Thanks!
