Ok, my temperature gauge doesn't register at all. Car runs fine, but I really don't want to run it long without knowing what temperature range I'm running in. So, I need to begin diagnosing this problem but first I'd like to know where in the heck the temp sender is located? I'm guessing it can only be 1) wiring, 2) gauge or 3) sender. So, once I find out where the sender is how do I test it?
Car is a 75 1.8l....again, as usual...thanks in advance! |

You found it. Now you need to locate the wire coming from the main wiring harness. The 73/74 cars have it where I described above.
Dealing with the late model cars is something I'm lacking. ALL of the 75-76 cars could have came with temp gauges...Porsche was purging stock on all these items.. so who knows what is exactly in them and what isnt. Good news is: you have the taco plate and you found it quickly. B |
