my inside temp sensor is reading -99 (minus 99 degrees). I think that’s why the compressor is not engaging - it senses it doesn’t need to be engaged because the car is detecting an (inaccurate) inside temp which is cold enough lol

You can't get rid of them without a scan tool so you better get one, makes life so much easier with these cars. Preferably MB specific, like iCarsoft V2.0.
