Humidity sensor reads higher the cooler it gets

My nest e thermostat seems to read higher the cooler it gets. If the system doesn't run and the room naturally heats from the sun humidity will drop 20+ percent but if I cool the room it will increase to nearly 85%. Now that temps are dropping the same is happening, as it naturally cools off at night humidity will go to 85+% and as house warms during the day it will drop 20+%. Is there a way to reset the humidity sensor? My nest upstairs reads the correct humidity throughout the day.

Humidity sensor on Nest e is still reading 20-25% higher than reality. My other nest reads in low 40s while this one is still in mid 60s. Since we have been using the heat it has dropped from the 85%+ it was reading but it still isn't right.
