Installed a new head unit...now ICY is displayed? I am in ARIZONA and it's 110 out!
Tried a search but every thread I found had the ICY feature for obvious reasons...well it is nowhere NEAR even under 90 degrees so I am guessing it's related to my head unit install? Any ideas?

There's nothing to clear. The computer is not getting a signal from the temperature sensor. It's not likely that the sensor just went bad. I'd bring it back and have them crack open the console and make sure all connectors are connected, tight, proper places, etc.
An additional hint - the ambient temperature sensor is connected through the Unified Meter & A/C controller. It's a little plastic box located behind the A/C control **** panel, right below the radio. Chances are pretty good that they've left something disconnected there.

No that just means the car knows you have a kickin stereo in it. ICE is "In Car Entertainment", but since the only light the car has is ICY it just flashed that one as a way of saying "thanks for upgrading me, you're swell".
Take it as a compliment.

What part of arizona, and which specific installer do others need to avoid?
there arent many connectors to disconnect when upgrading from stock/oem to aftermarket headunit (HU).
IMO DIY because one bad experience does not deserve another.
which yr z? maybe i could illustrate something or offer a link.
