Hello out there.....my oil temp gauge seemed to have stopped working completely and then and then slowly started to function again but at very low readings. My cylinder head temp gauge was ready normal temps. Has anyone experienced this and what could be the cause. Thank you.

Check the wire from the sender to the temp gauge.

Also check the power and ground (if any?) connections on the gauge.

Going to be the wire from the sender to where it plugs in just below the battery. Wire has become brittle.
