What can cause the temperature gauge to fluctuate in your 2001 dodge ram 1500?
low coolant
What would cause a 2001 Pontiac Grand Am's engine temperature gauge to not work?
Coolant Temperature Sensor
What is causing your temperature gauge to be in the cold position and radiator fluid to leak?
A low coolant level could cause the temp gauge not to read correctly. A faulty temp gauge sending unit could also be the cause. The coolant leak, you would have to find the source of the leak to determine the cause.
Why does the temperature gauge act erratic goes from cold to hot quickly then drops to cool When in red there is no heat from heater When in cool there is hot air from heater?
Low coolant, check when engine is cold.
The temperature light or gauge indicates the temperature of the?
engine coolant
Heat and ac work but temperature gauge does not function?
Bad gauge or defective coolant temperature sensor
Coolant temperature gauge?
water temperature. 180-220 degrees
What does it mean when your coolant temperature gauge reads cold even when warm and the idle is high?
Low Coolant or faulty gauge
Why does the temperature gauge act erratic goes from cold to hot quickly then drops to cool on a 1993 mercury villager?
Can be a defective temperature sending unit. If you just chance the coolant can be air trapped in the cooling system. You would need to bleed all air from the system. Can also be a defective gauge, but highly unlikely.
What could cause an intermittent overheat reading on the dash temperature gauge if coolant temperature sensor and the thermostat are new and the water pump and radiator appear to be fine?
Head gasket. Do block test for gases in coolant
Could a head gasket cause erratic temp gauge readings?
Yes it sure can.
If a coolant temp gauge is not working will it cause damage to your engine?
An inoperative temperature gauge will not alter how an engine runs, but the operator will not know if the water temperature has risen above normal without a properly working guage.
