Dead Temp Guage

Post by Reimotim »

Hi,

Just bought my first T25 1.6TD 1990. The temp guage doesn't seem to do anything, although the LED flashes on start up. I would like to get it working, where do I start?!

Thanks

Test the sender by removing the wire and earthing it with the engine on

if the gauge rises to max then the sender is probably shagged
