Hi Guys,

Hoping some one could help me and answer if the following are correlated.

I had a temp guage installed a long time ago, which stopped the dash temp guage from working.. Something about giving only half signal strength showing half the acurate temperate.

I never really noticed, but the thermo fan doesnt ever kick in. Is it possible that since the dash temp sensor is not working the thermo will not start?

The guage picks up temperature from a rod pertruding from near the turbos (sorry for my lack of engineering).

Does anyone know how i can get the original dash temp working?

Thanks
Chris

why does you car have a thermo fan and not a belt driven one?

are you sure your not getting it confused with the small air conditioner fan?

Hmm, the fan at the front of the radiators, whatever that is?? i thought that was turned on and off depending on temps?
