Description
The engine temperature gauge in the instrument cluster is not functioning or reads incorrectly.
Symptoms
- Temperature gauge stuck at cold
- Gauge stuck at hot
- Temperature gauge erratic
- No temperature warning capability
Common Causes
- Faulty coolant temperature sender for gauge
- Cluster gauge failure
- Wiring issue
- Sender connector corroded
Diagnostic Steps
- Check coolant temp sender resistance
- Test gauge with simulated resistance
- Inspect sender connector
- Compare scan tool temp to gauge reading
Repair Notes
Replace coolant temperature sender for gauge (separate from ECT sensor) or repair cluster.
