HELP HELP HELP Yes, it didn't work because you turned the key 1 click to many! :D The answer has been in your glove box all along (if you have an owners manual) ;) To change the outside temp display from Celcius to Fahrenheit (or vice versa): press and hold down the TRIP ODOMETER RESET BUTTON (on left side of instrument cluster) while turning the ignition to position 1 (ONE CLICK not two)...then back to 0 (off)...and then release the button. The next time you turn the ignition on...the outside temp will display the other degree scale. ;) (see text highlighted in yellow from the owners manual) :D http://www.bimmerboard.com/members/q/original/Reset%20Outside%20Temp%20Cel_Fahrenheit.jpg akhan 05-03-2007, 04:15 PM it worked...im so excited... its hott as hell here 85 degrees fahrenheit...LMAO THANX FOR ALL THE HELP Qsilver7 05-03-2007, 04:20 PM cool...nothing like sweet success. :alright bimmerfixr 05-03-2007, 04:30 PM it worked...im so excited... its hott as hell here 85 degrees fahrenheit...LMAO THANX FOR ALL THE HELP How hot is it in celsius?:D Jblaze 05-03-2007, 04:40 PM a lil off subject, but, my meter always reads -40, my sensor is bad isnt it? akhan 05-03-2007, 04:45 PM How hot is it in celsius?:D i could care less...hahha drw1926 05-03-2007, 07:00 PM a lil off subject, but, my meter always reads -40, my sensor is bad isnt it?
