Outside Tempreature Reading High

Our outside Tempreature reading on the our 01 Expy EB edition is reading about 10-12 degrees high all the time. Does anyone know the reason for this? Do you know of any fixes? Do you know where the sensor is at?

Thanks, BJ

Faulty sensor or sensor moved too close to a heat source.
Replacement only or return it to its orginal position.
Behind the grill and in front of the radiator towards the side. It is about 4-5 inches high, tubular and tapers towards the top.

It also could be covered with crud preventing an accurate reading.
