Water Temp Sensor

Post by Guided_Monkey »

For some reason my temp gauge when the engine starts and begins warming up goes to off scale high. I believe the temp sensor is feeding the gauge the wrong reading. What should the resistance of the sensor be when the engine is warmed up??<P>Thanks for any help.

FIrst make sure the engine is not really over heating! Before you do anything with that replace your your thermostat! It's under 5 bucks. If it's not that then you can mess with the water temp. sensor!<BR> :cool:

I forgot the answer to your question! The temp needle should be slightly lower than half when warm!
