Need help with overhead display.

Having a few problems with my overhead display. It lights up when the truck is started, but it reads that it's 140 degrees. I do not have manual. It's a 2002 Explorer Sport. There's plenty of videos showing how to repair the resistors inside but I've found no information on how to recalibrate the darn thing. Help needed thanks.

A reading of 140 degrees sure sounds like an issue with the sensor. Have you checked to make sure the sensor is plugged in correctly and the that wires are not pinched/shorted/broken?
