temperature gauge sensor is located?

Post by mikkymike » Wed Sep 30, 2020 3:43 pm

anyone know where the temperature gauge sensor is located? I have no reading on the temperature gauge, and am told it could be the sensor. It's a 1997, 2.5 diesel

Easy to see from the driver's side.
The wire to it runs over the front of the rocker cover for the passy side.
Hope that helps.

Have a read of this thread:

It's possible the thermostat has been removed to hide a problem.

Let's hope not. [-o<
