Can anyone tell me why my printer would display Temp to low -5 when starting it up? My shop is not even close to that temp 20+ degrees all the time. This all started after cleaning my print head.

My guess would be your display is telling the temp of your printers heater, not your room temp

temp too low? error message
I have an SC 500 which I flushed out completely, installed new printheads, reset head rank data but on startup it tells me temp is too low. The room is at least 25 C so it's not the room. Any help please?

I don't know what printer you have, I have a Roland SP540V and the "POWER ON" operating temperature specification is 59° to 90° F (68° or more recommended), 30 to 80% humidity.
And "POWER OFF" operating temperature is 41° to 104° F (20 to 80% humidity).
So, I would guess if you room temperature is in the 20's, you printer is telling you IT'S to COLD!
Get a small electric heater and keep it in the room near the printer and keep the area in the 68° F range.

temp too low
Hi , sorry should have mentioned I am in Australia and gave the room temp in ceslius, 25 c would be about 77 F. The printer seems to be having difficulty reading the temp from the printheads. I fiddled with the head data cable and suddenly got a temp reading on one head. Other head still reads only 33 F. Now I'm not sure if the data cable are faulty or the heads which are brand new. I paid US$600 each from a US supplier. I am not sure if they are Roland or a generic head.
