my car is running at correct temperature. the outside temperature reading on the computer is very high and car heating only luke warm. i believe it could be a faulty outside temperature sensor. where can i find this sensor. car is S reg MV6

Outside temp sensor has no bearing on the interior climate control  ;)

I had the same problem, my CID indicated 68° and my climate gave only cold air except if I chose "HI"... I have replaced my outside temp sensor and all problems were resolved!

Follow the wiring back, should end at a biggish black multi-plug, then check connections there
