Outside air temperature reading

The outside temperature reading in my Peugeot cab dashboard is reading several degrees too low. Ditto for the Truma electronic panel in the habitation area. Is this likely to be a sensor problem or calibration? It has been working fine. I assume the Truma is picking up the signal from the cab?

Outside air temperature displays usually get their info from a sensor on the front of the car ... lower valence area. As your motorhome is based on a commercial vehicle I would doubt that the habitation area uses the same sensor ..... but could very well be wrong  (I normally am at home 😞)

My Coachman has a habitation temp display on the main panel above the door, it's often different from that on the Alde panel.

I think the outside air temp sensor for the dashboard display is in the RHS door mirror (the LHS has the aerial I think)....

Can't help with the Truma issue sorry....
