Hello folks.....
a mutt owner in Liverpool area contacted me to tell me about a problem with his temperature gauge which has never worked correctly since he bought the vehicle not long ago.
His vehicle is a standard 24-volt setup but when he checked the wire which connects to the sender on the cylinder head, he gets a 12-volt reading with the wire disconnected from the sender.
I'll check mine out tomorrow but have any of you come across faulty (or Chinese-made) temperature gauges recently?
Thanks...
Ken

I have seen individual gauges that have regulators built into them to give them exceptional stability but I have only seen them on aircraft and they were not your average engine gauges, these were avionics instruments. I have seen dashboards with regulators which either regulated the voltage down or pulsed it but that was the input to the gauge and not the gauge itself. You have me curious now.
