    Default Outside Ambient Temp -34° F

    Does this always mean that the sensor is bad? It has been this way since the time I purchased the car a little more than a year ago. What's the usual cause of this? (planning to take some time tomorrow morning and check it out)

    I see the same temperature on my buddy's 325i. Must be the default temp or resistance.

    I've been told before that this means that the sensor is totally dead. But I can't see myself paying $40+ for a new sensor. Wondered if it'd be possible to get it to work somehow... (I'd need to locate it as well)
