Temperature Gauge: Testing and Inspection
Gauge Indicates Hot When Engine Is Cold

This condition is generally caused by a shorted or grounded circuit.

1. Remove sensor lead at sensor unit. Gauge should move to COLD position, if not check unit for a external short. If no external short is found,

replace sensor.

2. If gauge stays HOT, check for a short circuit in gauge to sensor wiring. If circuit is satisfactory, replace cluster.
