Title: Faulty Temperature Gauge
Post by: babz_audio on April 29, 2005, 11:13:07 AM
I noticed yesterday that the temp gauge needle was near the H, still under the white line but still very high, its never this high...so i stopped and let it cool down, drove home nice anc calmly and it was still reading very high, got out checked to see if fans were on and they were, no steam or anything, but i noticed that when i revved the engine the gauge needle dropped striaght back down to where it should be

any ideas???

Bad earthing in your dash or a loose connector on the sensor itself.
