Hi All,
Car is now running great following all the work and subsequent tweaking addressed earlier. One thing not working, pretty certain it did before engine drop, is the temp gauge. I have checked the obvious, wire connections at both ends. even replaced connector on green wire in engine compartment. All the other gauges work as they should. If I turn the key I do see the temp gauge move slightly so that tells me it is getting power. But, beyond that, the needle just sits near the bottom. It is the VDO gauge with no numbering, I think it uses some oddball sending unit. Anyhow, just wondering what troubleshooting procedure I should follow. I assume using voltmeter / ohm-meter is next step but not sure what I am looking at or for. Thanks. Mike |
