If the temp sensor is measuring outside air, It could be exposed to the air moving over the vehicle which moving air feels cooler than still air, If any one lives in Orlando, FL can tell you. hello.there. there is no way that the temp sensor could read the outside air. your temp sensor goes down when you drive because air is streaming through your cars grille a lot faster than when you are sitting still or parked. that is the way they are design to work and this is a fact.

Why does temperature gauge fluctuate while driving?

The temperature gauge in a vehicle can fluctuate while driving due to changes in engine load, speed, and coolant flow. When accelerating or climbing a hill, the engine generates more heat, causing the gauge to rise. Conversely, when coasting or driving at lower speeds, the engine may cool down, leading to a drop in the gauge reading. Additionally, variations in the cooling system's efficiency, such as the operation of the thermostat or the radiator fan, can also contribute to these fluctuations.
