GAUGE IN DASH OR ITS VOLTAGE REGULATOR IS BAD. WIRING OR CIRCUIT BOARD. UNIT IN TANK. FLOAT IN TANK HAS SUNK. dISCONNECT GAUGE AT TANK AND GROUND THE WIRE-THAT SHOULD CAUSE GAUGE TO GO TO FULL HOT. MOST CAR GAUGES WORK THE SAME WAY.
why doesn't my rpm gauge and temp gauge, fuel gauge not work
temp gauge is stuck on hot
1996 prelude temperature gauge reads low temp
Hey Mischelle==It is great sat this temp. If you want you can have a manual gauge installed temp to see if the electrical gauge is correct. The vibration is the rotors or possible the rear drums. Either one can be turned to get rid of it. GoodluckJoe
only 3 reasons a temp gauge wont work the temp sender is bad the gauge is bad or the wire from temp sender to gauge is broken
Possible bad sensor, it is on the rear of the head. On the driver side.
The temp sending unit for the temp gauge is located on the drivers side of the engine between cylinders 3 and 5 spark plugs.
Thermostat stuck open or no stat at all. Faulty temp sensor or Gauge.
Replacing the gauge could be a costly job but it is seldom the gauge goes bad. More likely the temp gauge sending unit is at fault. Replacing the temp gauge sending unit would take less than 15 minutes.
Test gauge function with a mechanical gauge to get actual engine temp.
If your temperature gauge isn't working the problem is a bad gauge, grounded or disconnected wiring or, most likely, the temp sender isn't working.
A faulty temp sending unit can do that.
