Because the voltage is high?
what should the volt meter guage read in my '93 Jeep Wrangler 13.5 to 14.2?
Voltage Regulator bad
The gauge of wire that is 12 volt is 18, 14, and 16.
Yes and no you have to rebuild the gauges so they read 12 volt The volt meter wont work with an alternator it was designed for a generator The fuel gauge is different ohms if you stay with the 6 cylinder engine the oil and temp gauge will work but if not the temp gauge has to have a longer tube installed and the oil gauge has to have different fittings installed. on the upside though your speedometer should still work.
10 gauge will work fine.
The pressure is checked with a gauge, the electronics are checked with an appropriate scan tool and a volt/ohm meter.The pressure is checked with a gauge, the electronics are checked with an appropriate scan tool and a volt/ohm meter.
# 3 gauge
For a 220-volt electrical connection, a wire with a gauge of at least 10 AWG (American Wire Gauge) should be used to ensure proper safety and functionality.
The temperature sender (the sensor that sends the temperature signal to the gauge) has to be immersed in coolant in order to correctly read the temperature. If the coolant is so low that it leaves the sender high and dry, the temperature shown on the gauge will not be a true reading. if the sensor is not immersed in the coolant, there a big chance it wont read at all...
The low side gauge more than likely says retard because you hooked the low side up on the high side port
Are you SURE your car is 16 volt?? I've seen 6 volt systems and 99.9% of the cars are 12 volt. So double check you numbers. I have NEVER seen a 16V battery in a car.
Use the next higher scale than the voltage you are trying to read. It should be either 20 or 30 volt DC
