Q: Had to replace windshield and now ac reads in Celsius but outside temp reads Fahrenheit
I read owners manual that the switch between F and C for both AC and outside temp is on the rear view mirror. I can change the outside temp back and forth but it doesn't change the AC readings at all. Likely something occurred with reconnection of rear view mirror during windshield install. But any ideas on how to remedy?
