That most likely means the outside sensor is disconnected. That's what mine reads when that happens |

Your sensor is either bad or disconnected. -37 degrees is the default reading shown on BMW OBCs when there is no signal coming from the snesor. |

It'll be inside your passenger side brake cooling duct.
