Title: Temperature gauge
Post by: mash on 29 March 2005, 11:24

The temp gauge keeps reading zero but then intermittently would start reading the correct temperature and then goes back to zero.

Any ideas?

cheers

this has happened once to me and was about to tell the dealership as was due in in any case for lubrication service, bu then the gauge just started working again by itself and not been a problem since. i think if u look in the haynes manual it tells u where the temp sensor is, u can check some connections yourself, but the actual sensor itself needs to be checked by a specialist with the correct tools me thinks.
