The outside air temperature probe was dislodged although the temperature I was reading on my dash was OK.
This mouse was very comfortable with his big nest of cotton.
Good you found that! I suggest you check every nook and cranny you can find, mice like to gnaw on wiring, if they cut any insulation your open for shorts, opens, and a whole lotta water damage to wiring/components down the road.
