Outside temp sensor has no bearing on the interior climate control  ;)

I had the same problem, my CID indicated 68° and my climate gave only cold air except if I chose "HI"... I have replaced my outside temp sensor and all problems were resolved!

Follow the wiring back, should end at a biggish black multi-plug, then check connections there

Your car is a facelift. OP's isn't and they're different from each other.  ;)
