#23 of 79 HHR Temperature Reading by yats Aug 19, 2006 (7:05 pm)
I've had the car for 3 weeks now and love it. However, I noticed that the temperature display reads a constant 66 degrees and I've tried turning on the car as if I was going to choose different options, like turn the horn on when locking the car, etc. Any ideas? Is it the ECM in the car? Where does the temperature reading come from? Thanks. Replies to this message: ray80 (Aug 22, 2006 9:51 am) js1717 (Aug 19, 2007 1:35 pm) laco (Aug 29, 2007 2:50 pm)

If those options you mentioned (if they are programmable) aren't working, it would also be in the area of BCM problem.
#25 of 79 2006 HHR NOT A JOKE!!!!! by jsherrill May 05, 2007 (12:04 pm)
Hey guys, Just bought my first HHR and i am already having a problem, I know this is probably going to sound like a joke, but here it goes, anytime I depress the brake pedal my rear windshield wiper starts wiping, i have tried replacing the relay and to no avail it will not stop, i even tried driving the car without the relay, which solved my problem, but without the relay in, I cannot open my rear hatch, because of the elctronic locking switch, I took it to the dealer and they could not find the root of the problem, i tried contacting chevy but they keep giving me the run around, any help would be greatly appreciated, if you could email me the answer at Chillin_in_shelbyvilleyahoo.com i would appreciate it, i am in the military and do not have readily access to this site, thank you very much

Replying to: yats (Aug 19, 2006 8:05 pm) I bought a HHR new yesterday 8-18-07 at a dealer and the outside temperature display worked for the test drive and drive home and today 8-19-07 the outside temperature display is now reading a constant 66 degrees (and the outside temp is in the 80s plus). Were you able to get yours fixed and if so what was needed? Has anyone else had this same outside temperature reading being stuck at 66 degrees? Thanks.

Replying to: js1717 (Aug 19, 2007 1:35 pm) Ok, I have a 2007 HHR, bought the end of March 07. The OAT display seems really sluggish to respond. It eventually will, but sometimes takes 30 to 60 minutes. Since a lot of my use of the car is local, that means the OAT is often 20 degrees or so low, since my garage is much cooler than it is outside at this time of the year. There has to be a way to force it to react quicker!

Replying to: josan (Oct 02, 2007 11:58 am) Your car is new enough, I would have asked to have them take one off another new car in stock, so a car with no owner would be waiting for the part. Replies to this message: 08hhrlt20176 (Mar 02, 2008 4:50 pm)
