2.2 temp gauge
« on: 23 March 2011, 20:03:58 »
Problems with the temp gauge not working at all.
It's an '03' plate 2.2 petrol.
Coincidence, or something they did when it stopped working when the middle section of the exhaust was replaced.
Could it be fuse or a wire disturbed, it's been back to the exhaust fitters, they say they haven't disturbed anything.
Gauge was working ok before in went in for the exhaust......Any ideas?

Not my car just asking for a mate :y

Might be a coincidence. Rear of the engine on the block where the EGR is bolted there are two connections. The single wire one is for the gauge, if it`s still connected, disconnect and put to 0v to rule out the gauge (should go to max when grounded)
