Inaccurate Outside Temp

Recently I`ve noticed that the oudside temp reading is inaccurate. The temp skyrockets after parking. Is there a way to clean or replace the sensor, and where is it located?

The sensor should be mounted either in the lower air guide by the bumper or the little grill insert on the drivers side.
