Replace the temperature sensor in front of the radiator.

Testimonial: "I ordered a new sensor. It should be 1-2 weeks. I put resistance of the old sensor place, now blows cool air.. :)"

SOURCE: 1990 lincoln town car outside temp shows -40 deg

I would say it was the sensor.Yet, it could be the read out in the mirror. I too. I've never figured out where that sensor is hidden.

Last night at 5:00pm my outside temp was 26. My min temp during the night was 19. My current temp outside is 27. The max temp since last night shows 123. What happened?

I am guessing this is an outside weather temperature thing? Have you checked the batteries of the outside probe? Made sure the "channel" is on the right setting etc?

I have white smoke coming from radiator - minus temp outside - no warning lights on - no smell - Audi TT

Could be just the heat off the hot radiator in a minus temp environment. Just like your breath outside on a cold morning?

However if you doubt that is the case then try to see where exactly the smoke is coming from (Mind not to burn yourself). Maybe a leaking Rad hose/cap?

Hope this helps

MY 2004 PACIFICA'S SPEEDOMETER IS RUNNING HIGH AND THE OUTSIDE TEMP IS NOW READING IN CELSIUS. WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM?

I would imagine that the car is fitted with some sort of menu where you can change the vehicle's readout settings into metric, so that now your car is reading in kilometers per hour and is also displaying temperature in the metric range.
You should access any in vehicle computer and reselect the ranges you wish to use.

Something telling computer it's minus 40 degree's outside

Have you checked the coolant temp sensor to see what the resistance is or to see if it is unplugged?

Climate control display for Outside temperature

Had the same problem, replaced the ambient air temp sensor in front of the radiator. Cost is like 10-15 bucks. Don't worry if temp doesn't change right away. Took me about 5 miles and then it worked great.
