temp gauge problem
Hi all just fitted a temp gauge (brand new) but i'm noticing that immediately as soon as i switch the ignition on the temp goes immediately up to 50 and then the more i drive it reaches 130 and stops there, the engine doesn't seem to be overheating what's wrong? the gauge or the temp sensor? thanks

Re: temp gauge problem
If it is an electric gauge then it normally has to work through the voltage stabiliser on the back of the speedo. With a bit of luck there will be some instructions.

Re: temp gauge problem
Well - it is quite warm in Malta....... As above - likely needs 10 volt feed from the voltage regulator on the back of the speedo - it's already supplying the fuel gauge.
