Is there a way to adjust the temperature reading on my Echo 2nd Generation Plus.
It reads about 5 degrees low all the time. Can this be tweaked inside, or do I have to mentally add the 4 - 5 degrees when I look at room temp ?
Is this a good question?

I haven’t found a way - I get the same response, a AC unit nearby is always about 3-7 degrees higher. I’m going to guess the sensor is ‘calibrated’ at the factory and the Echo just reads the results. Besides soldering & replacing the sensor to hopefully fix the temperature setting, I’d call Amazon, I had an excellent experience with their customer support. You other option is to replace the board itself, maybe trading in your broken board to help lower the price of a new one. There’s a take apart here on ifixit on how to replace the subwoofer; You could use those instructions to take the boards out & replace the one you want. That’s another question; Where is the temperature sensor!

Are you talking room temperature? Or outside, outdoor temp?
For room the echo plus 2nd gen has a temp sensor built in, for outside temp it uses a weather service such as weather channel.com

its pulling the weather data from a data provider, as far as I know there is no way to change this at the moment.
