406 TEMP GUAGE DOESN'T WORK

Post by tonirlane »

hI, as it says in the title, it don,t work. Have checked and replaced the engine sensor which screws into the water pump housing, no change, in fact the old sensor is ok. When the ignition is turned on the guage needle moves about an 1/8th of an inch from a cold or warm start, which tells me there is power to the guage itself,

where do i go next (not the dealers i hope)

Mine did this and its quite worrying seeing as you dont know if and when the fans are going to kick in

On the back of the engine though towards the top / rocker cover area there was a wire that had come off and thats about it really. Problem sorted.
