Title: Temperature Gauge
Post by: 76k104x4 on December 13, 2010, 09:34:30 pm

Is there any way to fix the temp gauge mine will hardly move from the first line i was wondering if it could be fixed or get an auto meter but dont see a point in having two gauges if only one works

You could take the old one out and mount the new one in the bezel.

If it were me I'd fix the stock one.  There's not much to it--a sending unit, wiring, and the gage itself.  Do some searches and you should find some diagnostic steps on here.  I could be wrong, but I think the first step is to ground the wire at the sending unit and see if the gage pegs out.
