Converting Fahrenheit to Celsius from OBC
Does anyone knows how to switch the outside temperature to Celsius from my board computer? I live in Europe so it's pretty useless to me in Fahrenheit. :(

PS: My Sebring doesnt have EVIC

To convert to Celsius, subtract 32 then multiply by 5/9ths. If that gets to be a pain, then check the owners manual. If you are asking about the mini-computer, it has a button labeled US/MET to switch between kilometers-Celsius and miles-Fahrenheit. Press it.
Why would anybody want to use Celsius to measure the temperature of weather anyway? Fahreheit makes much more sense: 100° is hot, 0° is cold. Celsius is no less arbitrary, but when discussing the weather, who cares what the boiling point of water is at sea level? |

I dont have the owner manual and neither the US/MET button mentioned above (I'm guessing that comes with the EVIC system). I just have a single button where u can switch between total of kilometers or miles the car has - outside temp (Fahrenheit of course) - miles remaining to the gas station and any other stuff. Have a great day! |

Even though I'm not sure that this will help solve your problem I'm still posting a picture of the US/MET button that dcotter was talking about.
Edit: By the way, anytime I need to convert something from....well anything to anything I use http://www.onlineconversion.com/ Attachment 1880 |
If you have the overhead display it should be as easy as hitting the menu button and changing it from there. I don't have that in my 1990 and my climate control just changed to Celsius on its own, No idea why.
