Strange Heat Problem - External Temp Sensor?

I live in Boston, MA and was driving my 2000 9-5 last night when I thought it was a bit chilly. Even after moving the inside cabing temp to 70 degrees it still felt like cold air was coming in and no heat. After playing around a bit I saw the exterior temp read 95 degrees (it was 48 outside). The only way I could get heat was moving the interior temp control all the way up to High.
Would the exterior temp sensor impact the way the car sets the internal heat? And is there a way to recalibrate? Or a simple way to replace the unit?
Thanks. This board has helped me with lots of repairs so I am hoping to continue the streak (ABS Sensor, Cabin Blower Can, Windshield Rack).
