Exclamation Outside Temperature Gauge

Hi I am new to this forum. I have a 2010 Honda Accord EX-L V6 and it seems like my outside temperature gauge seems to be off about 50% of the time. It could be 70 degrees outside and it will read 47 degrees. Does anyone else have this issue? Plus I am not sure if the outside temperature gauge affects the temperature for the heater and a/c.

heat or a/c should not affect that at all.
Sure you have the temp set a Fahrenheit not Celsius?

I'm assuming there has to be a setting to change it from one to another. I'm a 4th and 5th gen guy. I was just taking a wild stab at it. You would be surprised on the lack of common sense ppl have. I had someone PM me a week ago asking about his oil light..and why it was on. He had no oil in the engine...and that was the 1st question I asked. lol "did you check your oil?"
