I'm getting -40 F. This is located on the drivers side I thought the temperature sensor was on the passenger's side.
Edit: Turns out it is for the ambient temp. sensor

Yes, thats definitely looks like a temp sensor cable. replace the sensor and your reading should be back to normal. Your more than likely getting a "check engine light" aswell due to this.
