Temp Gauge issue
Trying to get some help on a 1997 3.8 Camaro that I have been working on for a while. The issue is that the PCM Temp and the Gauge in the cluster does NOT match. THE Gauge is reading about 50-60 degrees higher then the PCM temp. I have verified the PCM with my OBDII scanner. The PCM temp is running about 195-200 (195 degree thermostat) the Gauge is reading 250 + (most time pegs it out) and causes the "Check gauges" light to come on.
This car only has ONE sensor that feeds BOTH the ECM & Gauge
Thanks in advance
This car only has ONE sensor that feeds BOTH the ECM & Gauge
- Wire Goes to the PCM(Yellow)
- Wire is ground (Black)
- Goes to the Gauge Cluster (green)
- Changed Temp sensor with New
- changed Cluster out with a Known good cluster
- Cut and changed the wiring Connector @ the sensor
- ran a new (Green) wire from the sensor to the last connector I could get to before the wires go under the dash . I can NOT get to the back of the cluster to run a completely new wire
Thanks in advance
