Did A/C Mod..Outside temp gauge problem

Hi, im getting the stillen intake and i wanted to protect the A/c line from the new intake, so i i just wrapped the whole thing up, as some people have noted a gain in A/C productin with this mod. I used 5/8" ID insulation. The A/C feels maybe a little bit cooler (probally just mental), but ive noticed that throughout the whole day my outside temp gauge reads 65 degrees, even though i know its well over 80 here. Does anyone know what could be the problem? Thanks for the help!

There is an exterior sensor in front of the grill on the right side (near the horns). This sensor occasionally goes out, I believe there is a TSB out on this. Check with your dealer.

I don't believe the A/C line and the outside temp reading had anything to do with each other.
