Temperature gauge wiring??
Posted: Fri Oct 24, 2008 5:32 pm
Ok after all of the discussions on the temp gauge... I started to look into mine..
ours never reads above the 1/10 th mark so i wanted to check the gauge and wiring.
I see that the head has 2 probes in it.. one is 2 wire an done is single wire.
I would imagine that the 2 wire one is a temp probe and the singe one is a temp switch/ alarm..
is this correct.
At any rate the 2 wire one has voltage on it but the single has nothing.
Our truck at idle has reaches only 155 F so the thermostat is opening much to soon.
are my assumptions correct?
Thanks
