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 satisfactory replace cluster.
