Thread: water temp guage problems

as stated above im having problems the temp guage was working fine then it would work every once and a while now it doesnt work at all any ideas?

check the single wire connection by the intake manny.

exactly what i needed thanks

Mine was going all funky too. Turns out it was the engine to chassis grounds. Even running on the interstate in the rain, my temp gauge was showing overheating. What is yours doing?

not reading anything it was just bouncing around not showing any exact temp

the connector that bolts to t-stat outlet location is pretty prone to exposure and the copper oxidizes. end result... temp guage goes crazy. if you turn your wipers on and it changes the reading or turn the heat on in the car and switch it from 1-4 and watch the gauge and moves from you doing any of that i would buy a new ground cable from RockAuto.com. either that or if you have high strand 4 guage and a little experience you can attempt to make one.

Mine stopped working once. All I had to do was wiggle the temp connector and that was it. Ha
