BlairM Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 On my mums car I replaced the Thermostat and it worked. Probs could be anything to do with it though, check simple stuff first, like fuses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fo0q Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 take the connection off the temp gauge sender and earth it onto the engine.. put the ignition on and the needle should go all the way upto max..if so then it just needs a new sender or try cleaning the sender connetions.. worked on mine.

fo0q Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 its usually around by the thermostat housing somewhere... it will have a push on connector with 1 wire on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
