whiteglanzav Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 water temp gauge only really has 2 places it can be broke dude - either loose wires or broken wire from the thermo housing or back of dials.why is it broke ? is it always off the scale hot when its only just ignition ? if so ittl be the triangular connector on the thermo housingbut if you want it to warm up either let it idle for 10 mins or after about 5 miles of driving + you will be able to tell when your heaters get warm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Josh@TunerLifestyle Posted November 15, 2010 Author Share Posted November 15, 2010 it dosent come on at all the needle is just sitting below , so you think its a loose wire? yeh my drive to work is only 7 mins down the road on 40 mph roads , so just let it warm for 10 mins before i set off?cheers josh Quote Link to post Share on other sites
durmz Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 you dont need to warm up before you go anyway, there was big thread about it on tgtt ages ago, you just need to drive calmly for few miles Quote Link to post Share on other sites
