Adjusting temp in 172 Sat nav

[172gal]

Been meaning to ask this for a while now, i know a few others have it fitted to their 172s, my temp on the screen is wrong, says 30 degrees outside when really its only 20 or something. Ive had a flick through manual and cant find nothing

Any ideas?

Cheers

we get a couple in like that, just replace it in a day....nothing major or expensive so they should just swap it.....unless they arent vey nice people.

Had mine replaced under warrenty, get it done coz it affects the heater...not that you need it at the mo!!!! Only took em half an hour...

Mine said 34 in the winter and when I used the heater it just kept blasting me with cold air...bbbrrrrrrr!!!!!

This may sound like a silly question but is it covered for 2 years under warranty??

 

[Viv172]

it sez in the book, that if you have had your car serviced properly and its not missuse then warrenty is ok...it says that window heater elements are covered.

Appart from that i cant see it anywhere on the list of things not covered, so i take it that it will be.

Not sure but I think the sensor is in the passenger side wing-mirror housing, so if youve visibly had a knock there, they might try and wriggle out of the warranty as missuse.
