Has anyone had this issue installing a Dakota Digital CHT gauge?
Red and yellow wires are connected, as are ground and power wires as instructed in directions. Any thoughts or ideas? I went thru their trouble shooting , this issue is not addressed Phil |

Yes..should obviously be higher than that even if Celsius but could be a starting point. Also, which cylinder are you using? Do you have the sensor that goes "under" the spark plug? |
