Temperature display on center screen
Just bought a 2014 Stingray. Everything is like brand new except dealer let the battery dye. Outdoor thermostat reads -- on center screen. He tells me to bring it back to reset. Is this true and if so can I do it. Dealer is like 50 miles away.

This has happened to others with the C7 after the battery went dead or was disconnected. It should come back on its own after a couple of restarts. Give it a couple of days and if it still doesn't work then bring it back but I don't think this will be necessary.

I'd say if it doesn't come back in a couple of days:
Pull the battery cable for 20 minutes
Reconnect
Drive as normal for 2-3 more days
THEN if it doesn't come back, look at the dealer. But being from Microsoft, my first response is always "Have you tried rebooting?" :-)

It did not come back after the first restart, but after driving it around for a day it suddenly started to working.
