Angry Outside Temperature

Hey all, I've always been a F0RD guy with 2 previous F-150s and an Expedition.

But back in April I got myself back into the F-150. 2018 F150 Sport, 2.7 Ecoboost, Lightening Blue.

Absolutely love the truck. But I cannot seem to get the outside temperature readout anywhere on my vehicle.

Any help would be a huge help. Anyone else have this trouble?

Thank you all and best of luck to all you with your trucks!

it should be at the top center of the radio screen if you have the 8'' touch screen, I believe its in the upper right if you have the small screen

Yes right next to the clock! I know because my father bought nearly the same truck a month or so before me.

I loved his truck so much that I bought my own.

But, Negative. not there.

That's weird. I think the temp is always at the middle on my truck, but could be wrong. But it's definitely there at least in the home screen. Hey, do you have the temperature sensor under the passenger mirror? If yes, it must be a programming issue. Did you buy the truck new? If not, then maybe the previous owner messed with FORScan, and somehow turned it off. Good luck.
