Carly App: Coolant Temperature at -459.67F?!

Pretty sure my coolant does not run at absolute zero.

Anyways, I've noticed that I can never get an actual coolant temperature reading when using the Carly app to monitor. At first I thought it was a bad thermostat and temperature sensor, so I replaced those with new parts, but I'm not getting a reading still. The car warms up just fine and I am able to get a digital reading on the coolant through my electronic steering wheel screen.

Anyone else know what's going on here?

Never got "coolant" to work. "Motor tenp" seems to show coolant thought.

Does yours show -459.67 too? I've seen screenshots from other users that show an actual reading.
