Default Car is throwing code need help

I have a 97 C5 and it's throwing B0338 HC, it says it's "Inside Air Temperature Sensor Open". Can someone tell me what that means or how to fix it? Thanks!

It's the inside air temp. sensor next to the ignition key hole. If you took the panel off it's easy to forget to plug the harness back in, i've done it a dozen times
